METHODS AND A SYSTEM OF ITEM NUTRITION INFORMATION PROCESSING

Abstract:

Preferences with respect nutrition and ingredients are established for a user. The preferences are managed and stored on a mobile device. Images of nutrition and ingredient information are captured and analyzed against the preferences. Any ingredient for an item associated with the images that do not conform to the preferences are flagged and the user notified. The user is provided an option to receive a substitute item that does conform with the preferences. In an embodiment, a discount is provided to the user for incentivizing the user to select the substitute item.
