Abstract
A system and method directed to dynamic ingredient adjustment for nutrition-based recipe ingredient modification is described. The recipe ingredient modification can be based on the amount of one or more ingredients, nutrition content of the ingredients, ingredient availability, total nutritional content of an entire recipe or on a per serving size, and amount, kind, and nutrition content of any substitute ingredient used. A recipe's at least one nutritional content or value (for example, amount of fiber or total fat in gram or percentage) can be adjusted in approximately real-time while processing or measuring the ingredients on a smart scale. The system's dynamic scaling capability also provides for the substitution of ingredients or the adjustment of the quantity of ingredients even when a user is already in the middle of processing, mixing, or adding one or more ingredients based on predetermined ingredients and quantities provided in a recipe.
