Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to an information provision system and a food product. More specifically, the present invention relates to an information provision system and a food product that enable consumers to select products with confidence. [Background technology]

[0002] Traditionally, consumers have focused on the safety of products, especially food, and when selecting a product, they have come to be interested in the product itself and what its ingredients are.

[0003] Therefore, product providers provide their products by recording information about the products they offer, such as the ingredients and origin of the product's raw materials, and the date of manufacture, on labels affixed to the product's packaging or by recording it on an IC tag.

[0004] However, simply providing written or recorded information attached to products makes it easy to tamper with or falsify that information, and in fact, falsification and falsification of information has actually been done, resulting in low trust among consumers and making it difficult for them to select products with confidence.

[0005] Therefore, the inventors of the present invention have proposed a technology in which, rather than simply attaching written or recorded information to food, a sample of raw material powder made from the food's ingredients is attached to the food (see Patent Document 1). [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0006] [Patent Document 1] JP 2009-5656 A Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0007] The quality of various products, including food, is strongly influenced by various factors during the process of providing the product to the consumer.

[0008] Therefore, although food ingredient powder samples are a factor in obtaining information about the quality of food, they are only one factor, and the technology described in Patent Document 1, in which food is provided with ingredient powder samples attached, may not be sufficient to achieve the goal of allowing consumers to select products with confidence.

[0031] The information provision system of the present invention is an information provision system that outputs information about accessories in response to a request from a consumer for a food product having a food container in which food is hermetically contained and which has been subjected to a heat sterilization treatment, and accessories which are made of the same material as the food container and have been heated under the same conditions as those used for the heat sterilization treatment of the food container, and is equipped with a generation signal output means that outputs to a predetermined leaching information generation means a generation signal for generating leaching information, which is information regarding the leaching of bisphenol A from the accessories, based on image information of the accessories transmitted from the consumer's terminal, on the condition that a request for output of information about the accessories has been received from the consumer's terminal, and an information output means that outputs the leaching information generated by the leaching information generation means to the consumer's terminal.

[0032] The information provision system of the present invention is an information provision system that outputs information about an accessory in response to a request from a consumer for a food product having a food container in which food is hermetically stored, a predetermined coating film is formed on the surface that comes into contact with the food, a heat sterilization treatment is performed, and which is heated when the food is cooked while the food is stored in a hermetically stored state, and an accessory that is made of the same material as the coating film of the food container, or a coating film of the same material as the coating film of the food container is formed on a base material made of the same material as the food container, which is heated under the same conditions as the heating of the food container during the heat sterilization treatment, and then further heated under the same conditions as the heating of the food container when the food is cooked.The information provision system of the present invention outputs information about the accessory in response to a request from a consumer, the information provision system comprising: a generation signal output means for outputting a generation signal for generating elution information, which is information regarding the elution of bisphenol A from the accessory, based on image information of the accessory transmitted from the consumer's terminal, to a predetermined elution information generation means, on the condition that a request for output of information about the accessory is received from the consumer's terminal; and an information output means for outputting the elution information generated by the elution information generation means to the consumer's terminal.

[0033] The information provision system of the present invention is an information provision system that outputs information about an accessory in response to a request from a consumer for a food product having a food container in which food is hermetically contained and subjected to a heat sterilization treatment, and in which the food is heated while still hermetically contained therein when the food is cooked, and an accessory that is made of the same material as the food container and is heated under the same conditions as the heating of the food container during the heat sterilization treatment, and then further heated under the same conditions as the heating of the food container when the food is cooked, and is equipped with a generation signal output means that outputs to a predetermined leaching information generation means a generation signal for generating leaching information, which is information regarding the leaching of bisphenol A from the accessory, based on image information of the accessory transmitted from the consumer's terminal, on the condition that a request for output of information about the accessory has been received from the consumer's terminal, and an information output means that outputs the leaching information generated by the leaching information generation means to the consumer's terminal.

[0034] Here, by heating an accessory made of the same material as the coating on the food container under the same conditions as those used for the heat sterilization of the food container, it is possible to grasp the effect that the coating after heat sterilization has on the food contained inside the food container. In addition, by heating an accessory having a base material made of the same material as the food container and a coating made of the same material as the coating of the food container under the same conditions as those used for the heat sterilization of the food container, it is possible to understand the effect that the base material and coating after heat sterilization have on the food placed inside the food container. Furthermore, by heating accessories made of the same material as the food container under the same conditions as those used for heat sterilization of the food container, it is possible to understand the effect that the food container material after heat sterilization has on the food placed inside the food container.

[0035] Similarly, by heating an accessory made of the same material as the coating on a food container under the same conditions as those used for heat sterilization of the food container, and then heating it further under the same conditions as those used for heating the food container when cooking the food, it is possible to understand the effect that the coating after cooking heating has on the food contained inside the food container. In addition, by heating an accessory having a base material made of the same material as the food container and a coating made of the same material as the coating of the food container under the same conditions as those used for heat sterilization of the food container, and then heating it further under the same conditions as those used for heating the food container when cooking the food, it is possible to grasp the effect that the base material and coating have on the food placed inside the food container after heating for cooking. Furthermore, by heating accessories made of the same material as the food container under the same conditions as those used for heat sterilization of the food container, and then heating them further under the same conditions as those used for heating the food container when cooking the food, it is possible to understand the effect that the food container material after cooking heating has on the food placed inside the food container.

[0036] In other words, even if the food container does not have any effect on the food before heating, there is a concern that the food container may have an adverse effect on the food when it is heated during heat sterilization or cooking. Therefore, by heating the accessories under the same conditions as those used for heating food containers "up until after heat sterilization processing", or by heating the accessories under the same conditions as those used for heating food containers "up until after cooking heating", it is possible to understand through the accessories the effect that the food container has on the food after heat sterilization processing or cooking heating.

[0037] Regarding "heating under the same conditions as those used for heat sterilization of food containers," it is sufficient if the heating is performed in such a way that "the state of the food container after heat sterilization" and "the state of any accessories after heating" can be regarded as the same when judging the quality after heating. Therefore, this not only includes cases where the accessories are heated under conditions that are completely identical to the temperature, time, pressure, etc., conditions used for the heat sterilization of food containers, but also cases where the accessories are heated under conditions that can be considered to be the same as the heating conditions used for the heat sterilization of food containers.

[0038] For example, (1) heating the accessories at a temperature higher than the temperature conditions for the heat sterilization treatment and for a shorter time than the time conditions for the heat sterilization treatment, (2) heating the accessories at a temperature lower than the temperature conditions for the heat sterilization treatment and for a longer time than the time conditions for the heat sterilization treatment, (3) heating the accessories at a pressure higher than the pressure conditions for the heat sterilization treatment and for a shorter time than the time conditions for the heat sterilization treatment, (4) heating the accessories at a pressure lower than the pressure conditions for the heat sterilization treatment and for a longer time than the time conditions for the heat sterilization treatment, (5) heating the accessories at a pressure lower than the pressure conditions for the heat sterilization treatment and for a higher temperature than the temperature conditions for the heat sterilization treatment, or (6) heating the accessories at a pressure higher than the pressure conditions for the heat sterilization treatment and for a lower temperature than the temperature conditions for the heat sterilization treatment, if the "state of the food container after heat sterilization treatment" and the "state of the accessories after heating" can be regarded as the same when judging the quality after heating, then the intent is to include them in "heating under the same conditions as heating for the heat sterilization treatment of the food container."

[0039] Similarly, with regard to "heating under the same conditions as those used for heating food containers when cooking food," it is sufficient if the "state of the food container after cooking" and the "state of the accessories after heating" can be regarded as the same when judging the quality after heating. Therefore, this includes not only cases where accessories are heated under conditions that are completely identical to the temperature, time, pressure, etc., conditions used when cooking food, but also cases where accessories are heated under conditions that can be considered to be the same as the heating conditions used when cooking food.

[0040] For example, in cases where (1) the accessories are heated at a higher temperature than the cooking temperature and for a shorter time than the cooking time, (2) the accessories are heated at a lower temperature than the cooking temperature and for a longer time than the cooking time, (3) the accessories are heated at a higher pressure than the cooking pressure and for a shorter time than the cooking time, (4) the accessories are heated at a lower pressure than the cooking pressure and for a longer time than the cooking time, (5) the accessories are heated at a lower pressure than the cooking pressure and for a higher temperature than the cooking temperature, or (6) the accessories are heated at a higher pressure than the cooking pressure and for a lower temperature than the cooking temperature, and the "state of the food container after cooking" and the "state of the accessories after heating" can be considered to be the same when judging the quality after heating, then the intent is to include them in "heating under the same conditions as the heating of the food container when cooking the food."

[0041] Coatings for food containers include epoxy phenol-based (epoxy resin mixed with phenol resin), epoxy acrylic phenol-based (epoxy phenol mixed with acrylic resin as a hardening component), vinyl-based (vinyl chloride / vinyl acetate copolymer synthetic resin), C-enamel, polyester, etc.

[0042] In addition, bisphenol A (BPA), which is suspected to be an environmental hormone, is said to leach from epoxy resin. Therefore, if at least a portion of the coating on a food container contains epoxy resin, the effect of the coating containing epoxy resin on the food contained inside the food container can be understood through the accessories.

[0043] Incidentally, it is known that the "amount of bisphenol A leaching" is affected by heating conditions, and even for the same material (same substrate or same coating), the value (amount of bisphenol A leaching) will differ if the heating conditions are different.

[0044] Therefore, in the information provision system of the present invention, an leaching amount determination means is adopted that determines the "elution amount of bisphenol A" using a machine learning model based on image information of the accessories (i.e., image information of the accessories that have been "heated under the same conditions as those used for food containers before the heat sterilization process" or "heated under the same conditions as those used for food containers before the cooking process"), thereby outputting information on the "elution amount of bisphenol A" according to the heating conditions. Furthermore, by outputting information on the "elution amount of bisphenol A" according to heating conditions, the quality of the food can be fully communicated to consumers, allowing them to make food selections with even greater peace of mind.

[0045] Here, if the information provision system is equipped with a "dissolution information recording means" for recording the dissolution information, the dissolution information can be recorded within the information provision system, and the dissolution information can be output from the information output means to the consumer's terminal without exchanging the dissolution information with the outside (outside the information provision system).

[0046] In addition, if the information provision system is equipped with a "dissolution information search means" for searching for dissolution information, even if the dissolution information is not recorded within the information provision system, the dissolution information can be output from the information output means to the consumer's terminal by exchanging dissolution information with the outside (outside the information provision system).

[0047] Similarly, in the case where the information providing system is equipped with a "search signal output means" that outputs a search signal for searching for dissolution information, even if the dissolution information is not recorded within the information providing system, the information output means can output the dissolution information to the consumer's terminal by cooperating with an external dissolution information search means and exchanging dissolution information with the outside (outside the information providing system).

[0048] Here, when the elution information search means searches for elution information recorded in an external information recording means separate from the information providing system (for example, when searching a recording means that records only elution information), the search targets are limited, thereby enabling a rapid search and smooth elution information search.

[0049] In addition, when the dissolution information searching means searches for dissolution information published on the Internet, it is possible to search from a huge amount of information including the latest dissolution information, and it is expected that consumers will be able to find dissolution information that meets their needs.

[0050] Furthermore, when the dissolution information searching means searches for dissolution information recorded in the Internet information recording means which records information published on the Internet, the amount of information searched is smaller than when the dissolution information search means searches for dissolution information published on the Internet (information published on the Internet, not limited to information recorded in the Internet information recording means) in that only information recorded in the Internet information recording means is the search target. However, by creating a search index, search results can be obtained more quickly.

[0051] Furthermore, if the information provision system is equipped with a "dissolution information generating means" for generating dissolution information, even if the dissolution information is not recorded within the information provision system or externally (outside the information provision system), the dissolution information can be generated and the dissolution information can be output from the information output means to the consumer's terminal.

[0052] Similarly, when the information providing system is equipped with a "generation signal output means" that outputs a generation signal for generating dissolution information, even if the dissolution information is not recorded within the information providing system or externally (outside the information providing system), the information providing system can generate dissolution information in cooperation with an external dissolution information generation means, and the dissolution information can be output from the information output means to the consumer's terminal.

[0053] In addition, when the reference information generating means generates reference information (reference information for dissolution information) based on selection criteria information, it is possible to obtain reference information to be referred to when selecting dissolution information to be output from the dissolution information generated by the dissolution information generating means.

[0054] The reference information generated by the reference information generating means may be referred to not only when selecting dissolution information to be output from among the dissolution information generated by the dissolution information generating means, but also when selecting dissolution information to be output from among the dissolution information selected by the "dissolution information selecting means" or the dissolution information searched by the "dissolution information searching means".

[0055] In addition, when the information selection means selects the elution information to be output based on reference information ("reference information generated by the reference information generation means" or "reference information transmitted from the consumer's terminal"), the elution information to be output can be selected based on the information transmitted by the consumer ("selection criteria information" or "reference information") even if the consumer does not select specific elution information. The elution information to be output selected by the information selection means may be either single or multiple.

[0056] In addition, when a consumer sends selection criteria information as the "criteria for information to be selected," the reference information generated based on the selection criteria information (criteria for information to be selected) can be regarded as "model information to be output (i.e., the information the consumer wants to select)." Therefore, when selection criteria information is transmitted as the "criteria for information to be selected," elution information having a high similarity to the reference information (model information) will be selected.

[0057] Similarly, when a consumer submits reference information as "reference information for information to be selected," the consumer will select dissolution information that is highly similar to the reference information (model information).

[0058] On the other hand, when a consumer sends selection criteria information as a "criteria for information that the consumer does not want to select," the reference information generated based on the selection criteria information (criteria for information that the consumer does not want to select) can be regarded as "negative example information for the information to be output (i.e., information that the consumer does not want to select)." Therefore, when selection criteria information is transmitted as a "criterion for information not to be selected," elution information having a low similarity to the reference information (bad example information) will be selected.

[0059] Similarly, when a consumer submits reference information as "reference information for information that the consumer does not want to select," the consumer will select elution information that is less similar to the reference information (bad example information).

[0060] In addition, compared to sending "criteria for information you do not want to select" as selection criteria information, sending "criteria for information you want to select" as selection criteria information allows consumers to more directly identify the information they want to select, so in terms of fully reflecting the consumer's wishes, sending "criteria for information you want to select" as selection criteria information is preferable.

[0061] Similarly, in order to more directly specify the information that the consumer wants to select and fully reflect the consumer's wishes, it is preferable to transmit "reference information for the information to be selected" as the reference information.

[0062] In addition, if the leaching amount determination means reads the identification information displayed on the food product using the consumer's terminal, identifies the accessories based on the information sent from the consumer's terminal, and determines the ``leaching amount of bisphenol A'' of the identified accessories, the ``target accessories'' can be identified based on the information sent from the consumer's terminal, even if the consumer does not identify the ``target accessories (accessories for which ``information on the leaching amount of bisphenol A'' is to be determined).'' In other words, the consumer can specify the "target accessory" simply by reading the identification information.

[0063] In addition, in order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the food product of the present invention is a food product comprising a food container in which food is hermetically contained and on which a predetermined coating film is formed on the surface that comes into contact with the food and which has been subjected to a heat sterilization treatment, an accessory which is made of the same material as the coating film of the food container or on which a coating film of the same material as the coating film of the food container is formed on a base material made of the same material as the food container and which has been heated under the same conditions as those used for the heat sterilization treatment of the food container, and identification information displayed on the food container or the accessory, wherein the identification information is accessible to a website which lists information on the amount of bisphenol A leaching from the accessory determined based on an image of the accessory.

[0079] Hereinafter, modes for carrying out the invention (hereinafter, referred to as "embodiments") will be described. The description will be made in the following order. 1. First embodiment 2. Second embodiment 3. Third embodiment 4. Fourth embodiment

[0080] <1. First embodiment> [Configuration Description] FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram for explaining an example of a food product to which the present invention is applied. The food product A shown here comprises a retort pouch food in which food 1 (not shown) is hermetically contained in a retort pouch (an example of a food product) 2, and a transparent bag-like retort pouch material enclosure 5.

[0081] Here, the retort pouch food is heat sterilized using a pressurized heat sterilizer called a retort oven after the food 1 is sealed in the retort pouch 2. Note that the reason for applying pressure at the same time as heating is to prevent the retort pouch 2 from bursting due to the expansion of air remaining in the retort pouch 2.

[0082] Also, one example of a method for cooking a retort pouch food is to heat the food in a water bath (immersing the food in boiling water for a few minutes) or in a microwave oven without opening the retort pouch 2 and leaving it as is (i.e., with the food 1 contained in a sealed state).

[0083] Representative examples of the food 1 contained in the retort pouch 2 include curry, stew, soup, porridge, pasta sauce, rice bowl ingredients, cooked rice, hamburger steak, meatballs, and the like.

[0084] Retort pouches2 are broadly divided into (1) opaque types made by bonding plastic film and metal foil (such as aluminum foil) together, and (2) transparent types made by bonding only plastic film together.Retort pouches2 also come in flat pouches made by heat-sealing the edges of two pieces of film into a bag shape, and freestanding pouches with an additional piece of film added to the bottom, and are sealed by heat welding (heat sealing, etc.) in which the film is heated and softened and then pressed together.

[0085] One example of a retort pouch 2 is made by sandwiching metal foil between plastic films, with the inner layer that comes into contact with the food 1 being made of high-density polyethylene or polypropylene, the middle layer being aluminum foil, and the outer layer being polyester film, all of which are bonded together with an adhesive.

[0086] Furthermore, the retort pouch material enclosure 5 has the retort pouch material 4 hermetically enclosed therein, and the retort pouch 2 and the retort pouch material enclosure 5 are packaged together with a transparent film 6 .

[0087] Here, the retort pouch material 4 enclosed in the retort pouch material enclosure 5 is made of the same material (same film) as the inside of the retort pouch 2 (the side in contact with the food 1). Specifically, when the inside of the retort pouch 2 is a plastic film such as polyethylene or polypropylene, the retort pouch material 4 is made of the same material (the same film) as this plastic film.

[0088] The retort pouch material 4 is heated under the same conditions as those used when the retort pouch food is thermally sterilized, and further heated under the same heating conditions as those used when the retort pouch food is cooked. For example, if the heat sterilization of a retort pouch food in a retort oven is "pressurized heating at 120°C for 30 minutes" and the cooking method of the retort pouch food is "heating in 100°C hot water for 5 minutes," then retort pouch material 4 is also "pressurized heated at 120°C for 30 minutes" and then "heated at 100°C for 5 minutes."

[0089] Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 1, retort pouch 2 displays identification information 3 (for example, a two-dimensional barcode) that allows access to "information on the amount of bisphenol A eluted" of retort pouch material 4. In this case, the identification information 3 (e.g., two-dimensional barcode) has a URL recorded therein, and by reading the identification information 3 with a consumer terminal such as a smartphone, a website can be accessed via the Internet that lists “information on the amount of bisphenol A leaching” for the retort pouch material 4.

[0090] It should be noted that the "information on the amount of leaching of Viaphenol A" here is the result of judgment made by a predetermined leaching amount judgment means based on the image (image information) of the retort pouch material 4 at the time when the identification information 3 displayed on the retort pouch 2 is read by a consumer terminal.

[0091] [effect] In the example of a food product to which the present invention is applied described above, "information on the amount of bisphenol A leaching" according to heating conditions is posted on a website accessed via identification information 3, making it possible to fully inform consumers of the effect that retort pouch 2 has on food 1, enabling them to select food product A with even greater peace of mind, thereby improving the reliability of the food product.

[0092] [Variation 1] In the above-mentioned first embodiment, the case where the food container is a retort pouch 2 has been described as an example, but the food container does not necessarily have to be a retort pouch 2. For example, as shown in FIG. 2, food 11 (not shown) may be hermetically contained in a can container (another example of a food container) 12, and the food may be packaged together with a transparent bag-like coating material enclosure 15 in which coating material 14 is hermetically enclosed, and a transparent film 16.

[0093] The can container 12 shown in FIG. 2 is a three-piece can (i.e., a can consisting of three parts: a bottom lid, a cylindrical can body, and a top lid), and the inner surface of the can is painted with an epoxy phenol-based resin.

[0094] Can containers are broadly classified structurally into the above-mentioned three-piece cans and two-piece cans (cans consisting of two parts: a top lid and a body part in which the bottom lid and the can body are integrated). The shape of the top lid (can lid) includes flat lids (which can be opened with a can opener) and EO lids (which have a pull ring and can be opened easily). As an example, the material (raw material) of the can container 12 includes steel, aluminum, etc.

[0095] The inside of a can is painted to prevent corrosion and discoloration of the contents. The paint is made primarily from synthetic resins, with pigments and solvents. In addition to the epoxy phenol-based resins mentioned above, other paints include epoxy acrylic phenol-based, vinyl-based, C-enamel, polyester, etc.

[0096] In the manufacturing process of general canned foods, the food is sealed and then sterilized by heating using a sterilizer. This is to kill microorganisms such as germs by heating to prevent spoilage and to enable long-term storage, and the heating temperature and time vary depending on the type of food stored in the can. For example, canned fruits, fruit juice, etc., contain a lot of acid, so sterilization can be performed in a short time at a temperature of 100°C or less, while canned vegetables, fish, meat, etc. require sterilization at a temperature of 100°C or more for a long time. The canned food container 12 of this modified example has also been subjected to heat sterilization.

[0097] Also, one example of a method for cooking canned food is to use a water bath without opening the can container 12 and leaving it as is (that is, with the food 11 contained therein in a sealed state).

[0098] Here, the coating material 14 enclosed in the coating material enclosure 15 is the same material as the coating formed on the inner surface of the can container 12 , that is, the surface that comes into contact with the food 11 . Specifically, in this modification, an epoxy phenol resin is enclosed in a coating material enclosure 15 as the coating material 14 .

[0099] The coating material 14 is heated under the same conditions as those used for heat sterilization of canned containers, and further heated under the same heating conditions as those used for cooking canned foods.

[0100] In addition, in this modified example, the coating material 14 is provided as an accessory, but it is sufficient to be able to grasp the quality of the can container 12, and the accessory does not necessarily have to be the coating material 14. For example, the accessory may be a metal piece (an example of a substrate) made of the same material as the metal plate constituting the can container 12, on which an epoxy phenol-based resin coating is formed. Note that the epoxy phenol-based resin here refers to an epoxy phenol-based resin that is the same material as the coating formed on the inner surface of the can container 12, which is the surface that comes into contact with the food 11. In addition, in this modified example, the accessory is described as an example in which the coating material 14 is enclosed in a hermetically sealed state, but it is not necessarily required to enclose the coating material 14, and the coating material 14 alone may be the accessory.

[0101] [Variation 2] In the above-mentioned first embodiment and variant example 1, the food is cooked while being stored in a sealed state (cooked without opening the retort pouch 2, cooked without opening the canned container 12), but depending on the type of food and how the food is used, such cooking may not be performed. In such a case, the accessories are simply heated under the same conditions as those used for the thermal sterilization of retort pouch foods (the "heating under the same heating conditions as those used for cooking retort pouch foods" in the first embodiment is not performed), and are simply heated under the same conditions as those used for the thermal sterilization of canned containers (the "heating under the same heating conditions as those used for cooking canned foods" in variant example 1 is not performed).

[0102] [Variation 3] In the above-mentioned first embodiment, an example has been given of a website on which "information on the amount of bisphenol A eluted" corresponding to heating conditions is posted, however, instead of or in addition to "information on the amount of bisphenol A eluted", "information on the elution of bisphenol A" corresponding to heating conditions may be posted.

[0103] It should be noted that the "information regarding the leaching of bisphenol A" here refers to "information selected by a specified leaching information selection means," "information searched by a specified leaching information search means," "information generated by a specified leaching information generation means," etc., based on the image (image information) of the retort pouch material 4 at the time the identification information 3 displayed on the retort pouch 2 is read by the consumer terminal.

[0104] <2. Second embodiment> [Configuration Description] FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram for explaining a configuration example of a food information providing system, which is an example of an information providing system to which the present invention is applied.

[0105] A food information providing system 21 shown in FIG. 3 is configured to be capable of exchanging various types of information with a consumer terminal 23 used by a consumer via the Internet 22.

[0106] The food information providing system 21 also has an image information recording means 24, a dissolution amount determination means 25, a dissolution information recording means 26, a dissolution information selection means 27, a selection criteria information recording means 28, a model information generation means 29, an information selection means 30, and an information output means 31.

[0107] Here, the image information recording means 24 records the image of the accessories (the "retort pouch material 4" in the first embodiment, and the "coating material 14" in the modified example of the first embodiment) sent from the consumer terminal 23 used by the consumer.

[0108] In addition, when the retort pouch material 4 (accessories) is enclosed in a transparent retort pouch material enclosure 5 as in the first embodiment, the accessories can be confirmed from the outside even in the enclosed state, so an image of the retort pouch material enclosed in the retort pouch material enclosure 5 may be used.

[0109] Further, the elution amount determining means 25 determines the “elution amount of bisphenol A” based on the “image of the attachment 4” recorded in the image information recording means 24. Specifically, it is determined based on a machine learning model which "image of attachment 4" transmitted from consumer terminal 23 corresponds to which "amount of bisphenol A leaching."

[0110] Furthermore, the elution information recording means 26 records information regarding the elution of bisphenol A from various accessories (hereinafter referred to as "elution information"). As shown in FIG. 4, the elution information recording means 26 in this embodiment records, in a differentiated manner, "information 26A when the elution amount of bisphenol A is less than 0.1 ppm," "information 26B when the elution amount of bisphenol A is 0.1 ppm or more and less than 1.0 ppm," "information 26C when the elution amount of bisphenol A is 1.0 ppm or more and less than 2.5 ppm," and "information 26D when the elution amount of bisphenol A is 2.5 ppm or more."

[0111] Further, the elution information selection means 27 selects, from the elution information recorded in the elution information recording means 26, elution information corresponding to the “eluted amount of bisphenol A” determined by the elution amount determination means 25.

[0112] Specifically, if the "elution amount of bisphenol A" determined by the elution amount determination means 25 is less than 0.1 ppm, "information 26A when the elution amount of bisphenol A is less than 0.1 ppm" is selected, if the "elution amount of bisphenol A" determined by the elution amount determination means 25 is 0.1 ppm to less than 1.0 ppm, "information 26B when the elution amount of bisphenol A is 0.1 ppm or more and less than 1.0 ppm" is selected, if the "elution amount of bisphenol A" determined by the elution amount determination means 25 is 1.0 ppm or more and less than 2.5 ppm, "information 26C when the elution amount of bisphenol A is 1.0 ppm or more and less than 2.5 ppm" is selected, and if the "elution amount of bisphenol A" determined by the elution amount determination means 25 is 2.5 ppm or more, "information 26D when the elution amount of bisphenol A is 2.5 ppm or more" is selected.

[0113] Furthermore, the selection criteria information recording means 28 records "selection criteria information for selecting dissolution information (hereinafter simply referred to as "selection criteria information")" transmitted from the consumer terminal 23 used by the consumer. In this embodiment, the selection criteria information recording means 28 records "criteria for dissolution information that the consumer wants to select" as the selection criteria information.

[0114] Moreover, the model information generating means 29 generates model information of the elution information (hereinafter, simply referred to as "model information"). Note that the model information generating means 29 is an example of the "reference information generating means".

[0115] Here, when the selection criteria information is recorded in the selection criteria information recording means 28, the model information generating means 29 inputs the "selection criteria information" to a general-purpose generative AI (generation AI) (not shown) and obtains an output result of the generation AI, thereby generating model information. Note that when new model information is generated, it is registered in place of the previous model information (overwritten).

[0116] For example, the selection criteria information may include (1) Explanations are given in simple terms, without using technical terms. (2) Explanations are given using concrete data (3) It includes a description of the impact on children. If the above information is recorded, the contents of (1) to (3) are input into the generation AI to generate model information.

[0117] Furthermore, when model information is generated, the information selection means 30 selects, from the elution information selected by the elution information selection means 27, dissolution information having a high similarity to the "model information."

[0118] That is, when the "selection criteria information" is recorded, the model information generating means 29 generates model information, and then the information selecting means 30 selects dissolution information having a high similarity to the model information as the output target.

[0119] Further, the information output means 31 outputs information on the “elution amount of bisphenol A” determined by the elution amount determination means 25 and the elution information selected by the information selection means 30 to the consumer terminal 23 . Specifically, information on the amount of elution determined by the elution amount determining means 25 and the elution information selected by the information selecting means 30 are posted on a website that can be accessed by the consumer terminal 23 reading the identification information 3.

[0120] FIG. 5 is a schematic diagram showing an example of a method of using the above-mentioned food information providing system 21. In the following, the explanation will be given on the assumption that the consumer (new customer) 40 has collected information when considering whether or not to receive the food product A from the food provider 10.

[0121] [1. Recording of various information] In one example of a method of using the food information providing system 21 of the present invention, in order for the consumer 40 to obtain leaching information, various information needs to be recorded in the food information providing system 21. For this purpose, the recording of various information in the food information providing system 21 will be described.

[0122] In one example of a method of using the food information providing system 21 of the present invention, first, the food provider 10 uses a food provider terminal (not shown) to transmit dissolution information to the food information providing system 21 (step indicated by symbol (1) in Figure 5).

[0123] Specifically, "information 26A when the amount of bisphenol A elution is less than 0.1 ppm," "information 26B when the amount of bisphenol A elution is 0.1 ppm or more and less than 1.0 ppm," "information 26C when the amount of bisphenol A elution is 1.0 ppm or more and less than 2.5 ppm," and "information 26D when the amount of bisphenol A elution is 2.5 ppm or more" are transmitted.

[0124] After the various information is recorded as described above, it becomes possible to provide the various information to the consumer 40.

[0125] Note that, here, we only explain the case where various information is recorded about food product A provided by food provider 10, but the information recorded in food information provision system 21 does not only relate to "food product A provided by food provider 10", but also includes information about "other foods provided by food provider 10" and "foods provided by food providers other than food provider 10." That is, in this embodiment, an example will be given of a case in which a consumer 40 obtains information about food product A provided by the food provider 10 (specifically, information about accessory 4) (described later), but the food information providing system 21 can also provide information about "food other than food product A provided by the food provider 10" or "food provided by a food provider other than the food provider 10."

[0126] [2. Provision of various information] A consumer 40 who wishes to receive various information related to a food product A (accessory 4) provided by a food provider 10 uses a consumer terminal 23 (not shown in FIG. 5) to access the food information providing system 21 via the Internet 22 (step indicated by the symbol (2) in FIG. 5).

[0127] Specifically, when the identification information (identifier such as a two-dimensional barcode or color code) 3 displayed on the retort pouch 2 is read by the consumer terminal 23, information on the food product A (accessory 4) is transmitted from the consumer terminal 23 to the food information providing system 21, and based on the transmitted information, the accessory 4 about which the consumer 40 wants information is identified.

[0128] Furthermore, when the identification information 3 is read by the consumer terminal 23, the consumer is prompted to send an image of the attachment 4. When the consumer 40 takes an image of the accessory 4 using the consumer terminal 23 and transmits the taken image to the food information providing system 21, the image of the accessory 4 is recorded in the image information recording means 24.

[0129] Next, when an image of the attachment 4 is recorded in the image information recording means 24, the elution amount determining means 25 determines the "elution amount of bisphenol A from the attachment" based on the recorded image of the attachment 4.

[0130] Next, when the elution amount determination means 25 determines the "elution amount of Bisphenose A of the accessory," the elution information selection means 27 selects, based on the determination result (elution amount information), "elution information (output candidate elution information)" to be output from the elution information recorded in the elution information recording means 26.

[0131] Furthermore, when the identification information 3 is read by the consumer terminal 23, the “selection criteria information” pre-recorded in the consumer terminal 23 is transmitted to the food information providing system 21 and recorded in the selection criteria information recording means 28. For example, selection criteria information such as "(1) the explanation is given in simple terms without using technical jargon, (2) the explanation uses concrete data, and (3) a description of the impact on children is included" is sent.

[0132] If the "selection criteria information" is not recorded in the consumer terminal 23, when the identification information 3 is read, the consumer terminal 23 is prompted to input the "selection criteria information".

[0133] Next, when the "selection criteria information" is recorded in the selection criteria information recording means 28, the model information generating means 29 generates model information, and the information selecting means 30 selects the elution information to be output from the "output candidate elution information".

[0134] When the information selection means 30 selects the elution information, the information output means 31 outputs the elution information to be output together with the elution amount information (the elution amount information and the elution information are posted on a website and displayed on the consumer terminal 23).

[0135] Thereafter, when the consumer 40 receives food product A from the food provider 10 (when purchasing food product A from the food provider 10), the food provider 10 provides food product A to the consumer.

[0136] [effect] In the food information providing system 21 to which the present invention is applied described above, when a consumer requests information on accessories 4, "information on the amount of bisphenol A eluted according to heating conditions" and "information on elution according to the amount of bisphenol A eluted" are output, thereby making it possible to fully convey "information on accessories" to the consumer, thereby enabling the consumer to select foods with even greater peace of mind.

[0137] In addition, since the consumer 40 only needs to transmit the "selection criteria information", the information selection means 30 selects dissolution information that is highly similar to the "dissolution information that the consumer 40 wants to select", so the consumer does not need to select specific dissolution information from multiple pieces of dissolution information. Furthermore, since the information selection means 30 can select optimal elution information (that is, in line with the selection intention of the consumer 40), it is expected that the "elution information of the accessory 4" will be communicated to the consumer more satisfactorily.

[0138] [Variation 4] In the above-described second embodiment, an example is given in which "selection criteria information" is transmitted from the consumer terminal 23 and the model information generation means 29 generates model information, but the "model information" may also be transmitted from the consumer terminal 23. In this case, a "model information recording means" is provided instead of the "selection criteria information recording means 28 and model information generating means 29", the "model information" transmitted from the consumer terminal 23 is recorded in the model information recording means, and the information selection means 30 selects dissolution information based on the "model information" recorded in the model information recording means.

[0139] [Variation 5] In the above-mentioned second embodiment, an example has been described in which the information selection means 30 selects elution information based on the “model information”. However, the information output means 31 may output the “output candidate elution information” selected by the elution information selection means 27. That is, instead of selecting from among the "output candidate elution information", the information output means 31 may output all of the "output candidate elution information".

[0140] [Variation 6] In the second embodiment described above, the accessories 4 are identified by reading the identification information 3 displayed on the retort pouch 2, but it is sufficient if the accessories 4 can be identified, and the method is not limited to reading the identification information 3, and a consumer 40 who accesses the food information providing system 21 may select a food product A (accessory 4). Specifically, by accessing the food information providing system 21 from the consumer terminal 23, a list of food providers who can provide information is displayed on the consumer terminal 23, and the consumer 40 selects "food provider 10" from the displayed list. Then, when "food provider 10" is selected, a list of foods provided by the food provider 10 is displayed, and the consumer 40 selects "food product A (accessory 4)" from the displayed list.

[0141] <3. Third embodiment> [Configuration of the present invention] FIG. 6 is a schematic diagram for explaining a configuration example of a food information providing system, which is another example of the information providing system to which the present invention is applied. In the following, the differences from the second embodiment will be mainly described, and a description of the points in common with the second embodiment will be omitted.

[0142] The food information providing system 41 shown in FIG. 6 has a dissolution information search means 42 (instead of the "dissolution information recording means 26" and the "dissolution information selection means 27" of the second embodiment, the third embodiment has a "dissolution information selection means 42").

[0143] Here, the dissolution information search means 42 is configured to be able to access a dissolution information recording means 43 provided separately from the food information providing system 41. The dissolution information recording means 43 records dissolution information of various accessories (the dissolution information recorded in the "dissolution information recording means 26" in the second embodiment), and the dissolution information search means 42 accesses the dissolution information recording means 43 and searches for the dissolution information.

[0144] That is, when a consumer requests information on an accessory (specifically, when the identification information 3 shown in FIG. 1 is read), the dissolution information search means 42 searches for "dissolution information (output candidate dissolution information)" to be output, from the dissolution information recorded in the dissolution information recording means 43, based on the judgment result (information on the amount of dissolution) of the dissolution amount judgment means 25.

[0145] [effect] In the food information providing system 41 to which the present invention is applied as described above, the dissolution information search means 42 can search for dissolution information, so that even if the dissolution information is not recorded in the food information providing system 41, the information output means 31 can output the dissolution information to the consumer terminal 23.

[0146] <4. Fourth embodiment> [Configuration of the present invention] FIG. 7 is a schematic diagram for explaining a configuration example of a food information providing system, which is yet another example of the information providing system to which the present invention is applied. In the following, the differences from the second embodiment will be mainly described, and a description of the points in common with the second embodiment will be omitted.

[0147] The food information providing system 51 shown in FIG. 7 has a dissolution information generating means 52 (instead of the “dissolution information recording means 26” and the “dissolution information selecting means 27” of the second embodiment, the fourth embodiment has a “dissolution information generating means 52”).

[0148] Here, the dissolution information generating means 52 is configured to be able to access a generating AI 53 provided separately from the food information providing system 51.

[0149] For example, for "elution information of accessory aaa," "information on the name of accessory aaa" and "information on the elution amount of bisphenol A from accessory aaa" are input as input information to a general-purpose generative AI (generation AI) 53, and the "elution information of accessory aaa" is generated by obtaining an output result from the generation AI 53. Note that by adding information (preferences) of the consumer who is the recipient (output destination) of the elution information to the input information, it is possible to generate elution information that is more in line with the consumer's needs.

[0150] That is, when a consumer requests information on an accessory (specifically, when the identification information 3 shown in FIG. 1 is read), the dissolution information generating means 52 generates "dissolution information (output candidate dissolution information)" that is an output candidate based on the judgment result (information on the amount of dissolution) of the dissolution amount judgment means 25.

[0151] [effect] In the food information providing system 51 to which the present invention is applied as described above, the dissolution information generating means 52 can generate dissolution information, so that even if the dissolution information is not recorded inside or outside the food information providing system 51, the information output means 31 can output the dissolution information to the consumer terminal 23.
