JP5854358B2 - Food product and method for providing food product - Google Patents

Description

  The present invention relates to a food product and a method for providing a food product. Specifically, the present invention relates to a food product and a food product providing method that allow a consumer to select a food with peace of mind.

  Traditionally, consumers have been paying attention to the safety of products, especially food, and when consumers select a product, the consumer is concerned about what the product itself and the ingredients of the product are. Shows interest.

  For this reason, the provider of the product writes the information on the product to be provided and the ingredients of the product, the place of origin, the date of manufacture, etc. on a label affixed to the product packaging or records it on an IC tag. Is provided.

  However, it is easy to falsify or counterfeit information simply by providing a product with recorded or recorded information attached to the product, and there is a fact that information is falsified or counterfeited. It was difficult for consumers to select products with peace of mind.

  Therefore, the inventor of the present invention proposes a technique for providing food by attaching a sample of a raw material powder, which is a raw material of the food, to the food, rather than simply attaching information recorded or recorded to the food. (See Patent Document 1).

JP 2009-5656 A

  By the way, the quality of various products including foods is strongly influenced by various factors in the process until the products are provided to consumers.

  Therefore, although the raw material powder of food is a factor that can obtain information on the quality of food, it is only one factor, and Patent Document 1 discloses that food samples are provided with food sample attached to food. The described technology alone may not be sufficient to achieve the goal of consumers choosing food with peace of mind.

  The present invention was devised in view of the above points, and an object of the present invention is to provide a food product and a method for providing the food product that allow a consumer to select a food with greater confidence. To do.

  In order to achieve the above object, the food product of the present invention grows separately from the predetermined food as a primary product and part of the food, or under substantially the same conditions as the food. Or a different part of the mono-growth product that has grown together with the food, or an alternative food that is grown separately from the food under substantially the same conditions as the food. An appendage body, which is a portion different from the portion corresponding to the food product of the alternative monogrowth product grown in the present embodiment, is configured to be housed together with water and provided with the food product.

  Here, the factors that have been influenced by the process until the food (primary product) is provided to the consumer due to the accessory itself being contained with water and the accessory provided with the food. It is possible to grasp the substance of the growth process of (primary products). In addition, an appendix main body exists in a plant body (hereinafter, it is the same).

  In addition, since water is contained together with the accessory body, the quality of the accessory body can be grasped by the change of the accessory over time (for example, discoloration and smell), and through the quality of the accessory body It becomes possible to grasp the quality of food (primary product).

  By the way, “substitute food grown separately from food under substantially the same conditions as food” means vegetables and fruits grown with the same fertilizer on the same farm. That is, the “substitute food” means a food that can be identified with the food in grasping the quality.

  Specifically, it can be said that the crop B cultivated by the same producer as the food A at the same time as the food A by the same farming method as the food A is an alternative food for the food A. In addition, “same producers” may include cases where the sub-committees are the same, and “same farming methods” may include cases where fertilizers and pesticides meet certain standards. The term “subcommittee” means “an aggregate of a plurality of producers whose purpose is to ship crops of the same variety as much as possible jointly or in cooperation, although the soil to be planted varies depending on the owner”.

  For example, when the food is an apple, other apples grown by applying the same fertilizer in the same orchard as the apple fall under “substitute food”. On the other hand, apples in different orchards, and apples grown in different fertilizers or in different conditions or environments in the same orchard are not “alternative foods”.

  In addition, “a portion different from the food of the integrally grown product that grows together with the food” means a portion that is different from the portion adopted as the food but has grown together with the food.

  For example, if the food is a radish (root or stem part), the other parts of the radish root or stem are the same part, so it falls under “integrated growth” but “integral growth” It does not fall under “parts different from food”. On the other hand, the leaves of the same radish fall under the “parts different from the mono-grown food”.

  In addition, “the part different from the part corresponding to the food of the alternative integrated growth product that is grown together with the alternative food” is a part different from the part corresponding to the part adopted as the food, but is integrated with the alternative food. Means the part that has grown.

  For example, if the food is an apple, an apple grown with the same fertilizer in the same orchard as the apple adopted as the food will not be `` a part different from the part corresponding to the food of the alternative integral growth product '' Not applicable. On the other hand, apple branches and leaves grown by applying the same fertilizer in the same orchard as the apple adopted as food correspond to “parts different from the parts corresponding to the food of alternative integrated growth”.

  In order to achieve the above object, in the food product of the present invention, the predetermined food as a secondary product and a part of the raw material of the food, or substantially the same conditions as the raw material of the food It is an alternative raw material grown separately from the raw material of the food, or it is a part different from the raw material of the food of the integrally grown product grown integrally with the raw material of the food, or substantially the same as the raw material of the food An accessory body, which is a portion different from the portion corresponding to the raw material of the food of the alternative integrated growth grown integrally with the alternative raw material grown separately from the raw material of the food under conditions, is configured to be accommodated together with water And an accessory provided with the food.

  Here, the factors that have been affected in the process of providing food (secondary product) ingredients to consumers due to the appendage itself being contained with water and being provided with food. In addition, it is possible to grasp the substance of the growth process of raw materials for food (secondary products).

  In addition, since water is contained together with the accessory body, the quality of the accessory body can be grasped by the change of the accessory over time (for example, discoloration and smell), and through the quality of the accessory body It becomes possible to grasp the quality of raw materials for food (secondary products).

  By the way, “alternative raw material grown separately from food raw material under substantially the same conditions as food raw material” means vegetables and fruits grown on the same farm with the same fertilizer. That is, the “alternative raw material” means what can be identified with the raw material of the food in grasping the quality of the raw material of the food.

  Specifically, the crop B cultivated by the same farming method as the food material A at the same time as the food material A by the same producer as the food material A can be said to be an alternative material for the food material A. In addition, “same producers” may include cases where the sub-committees are the same, and “same farming methods” may include cases where fertilizers and pesticides meet certain standards. The term “subcommittee” means “an aggregate of a plurality of producers whose purpose is to ship crops of the same variety as much as possible jointly or in cooperation, although the soil to be planted varies depending on the owner”.

  For example, when the raw material of food is an apple, other apples grown by applying the same fertilizer in the same orchard as the apple fall under “alternative raw material”. On the other hand, apples in different orchards, and apples grown in different fertilizers and under different conditions or environments in the same orchard are not “alternative raw materials”.

  In addition, “the part different from the food ingredient of the mono-growth product that grows together with the raw material of the food” is a part that is different from the part that is adopted as the raw material of the food, but has grown together with the raw material of the food. Means part.

  For example, when the raw material of the food is radish (root or stem part), the other parts of the radish root and stem are the same part. It does not fall under “parts different from raw materials for grown foods”. On the other hand, the leaves of the same radish correspond to “parts different from the raw material of the integrally grown food”.

  In addition, “the part different from the part corresponding to the raw material of the food of the alternative integrated growth that is grown together with the alternative raw material” is a part different from the part corresponding to the part adopted as the raw material of the food, It means the part that grows together with alternative raw materials.

  For example, if the raw material of the food is an apple, an apple grown by applying the same fertilizer in the same orchard as the raw material of the apple is `` the part corresponding to the raw material of the alternative integrated growth food '' Does not fall under “different parts”. On the other hand, the branches and leaves of apples grown with the same fertilizer in the same orchard as the apples used as food ingredients are "parts different from the parts corresponding to the food ingredients of alternative integrated growth" It corresponds to.

  In order to achieve the above object, in the method for providing a food product of the present invention, the predetermined food as a primary product, a part of the food, or the food under substantially the same conditions as the food Is an alternative food grown separately, or is a different part of the food of the mono-growth product grown together with the food, or grown separately from the food under substantially the same conditions as the food The accessory body which is a part different from the part corresponding to the said food of the alternative integrated growth grown together with the alternative food product is provided with the step of providing together with the accessory configured to be accommodated together with water.

  Here, by providing an accessory that is configured with the accessory body contained with water, the factors that were affected in the process until the food (primary product) was provided to the consumer, and the food (primary product) ) To understand the substance of the growth process.

  In addition, since water is contained together with the accessory body, the quality of the accessory body can be grasped by the change of the accessory over time (for example, discoloration and smell), and through the quality of the accessory body It becomes possible to grasp the quality of food (primary product).

  In order to achieve the above object, in the method for providing a food product of the present invention, the predetermined food as a secondary product and a part of the raw material of the food, or substantially the same as the raw material of the food It is an alternative raw material grown separately from the raw material of the food under certain conditions, or is a part different from the raw material of the food of an integral growth product that has grown together with the raw material of the food, or the raw material of the food The accessory body, which is a portion different from the portion corresponding to the raw material of the food of the alternative integrated growth grown together with the alternative raw material grown separately from the raw material of the food under substantially the same conditions, is accommodated together with water. And providing a configured accessory together.

  Here, by providing an accessory that is configured with the accessory body housed with water, the factors that were affected in the process until the raw material of the food (secondary product) was provided to the consumer, It is possible to grasp the substance of the growth process of raw materials for (secondary products).

  In addition, since water is contained together with the accessory body, the quality of the accessory body can be grasped by the change of the accessory over time (for example, discoloration and smell), and through the quality of the accessory body It becomes possible to grasp the quality of raw materials for food (secondary products).

  In order to achieve the above object, in the method for providing a food product according to the present invention, the predetermined food, which is a primary product, is a part of the food, or the food under substantially the same conditions as the food. Is an alternative food grown separately from the food, or is a different part of the food that is integrally grown with the food, or is separated from the food under substantially the same conditions as the food. The accessory body which is a part different from the part corresponding to the said foodstuff of the alternative integrated growth grown together with the grown alternative foodstuff comprises the process of showing and providing the accessory comprised with water.

  Here, by showing the appendage that the appendage body is contained together with water, the factors affected in the process until the food (primary product) is provided to the consumer, the food (primary product) You can grasp the actual growth process.

  In addition, since water is contained together with the accessory body, the quality of the accessory body can be grasped by the change of the accessory over time (for example, discoloration and smell), and through the quality of the accessory body It becomes possible to grasp the quality of food (primary product).

Hereinafter, modes for carrying out the invention (hereinafter referred to as “embodiments”) will be described. The description will be given in the following order.
1. First Embodiment 2. FIG. Second Embodiment 3. FIG. Third embodiment 4. Fourth embodiment

<1. First Embodiment>
[Description of configuration]
FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram for explaining an example of a food product to which the present invention is applied. In the food product A shown here, an accommodation recess 3 is formed at the bottom of a container 2 containing the food 1 in a sealed state. Yes.

In the housing recess 3, a transparent bag-shaped food powder enclosure 5 in which the food powder 4 is hermetically sealed together with water is housed.
In addition, the food 1 and the food powder 4 are separately accommodated, and the container 2 of the food 1 and the food powder inclusion body 5 of the food powder 4 are integrally packaged with the wrapping paper 6.

  The food powder 4 is a powder of the food 1 or a powder of an integrally grown product of the food 1 when the food 1 is a primary product. Further, when the food 1 is a secondary product, it is a powder of the raw material of the food 1 or a powder of an integral growth of the raw material of the food 1.

  Here, when the food 1 is a primary product, the integrally grown product means “a portion that is grown together with the food 1 and is different from the food 1”.

  Specifically, in the case of rice cakes, apples, beans, rice, wheat, sesame seeds, sugar cane, etc., where food 1 is a primary product, food 1, which is food 1, apple, beans, rice, wheat Leaf, root, branch, stem, bran, fir, vine, shell, ear of rice, wheat ear, pod (bean or sesame pod), stem (sugar cane stem), flower, etc. Note that the shell may have a fruit in the shell. However, the integrally grown product is a portion different from the food 1.

By the way, as an alternative to the integral growth, the alternative integral growth may be sealed in the food powder enclosure 5.
Here, in the case where the food 1 is a primary product, the substitute integrated growth means “a portion that is grown integrally with the substitute food of the food 1 and is different from the portion corresponding to the food 1”.
The substitute food means a product grown separately from the food 1 under substantially the same conditions as the food 1.

  Specifically, when food 1 is a primary product such as strawberries, apples, beans, rice, wheat, etc., as an alternative integrated growth, strawberries and apples grown with the same fertilizer on the same farm as food 1 , Leaves, roots, branches, stems, bran, fir, vines, shells, rice ears, ears of wheat, malt, flowers and the like, which are grown together with alternative foods such as beans, rice and wheat. Note that the shell may have a fruit in the shell. However, the alternative integral growth is a portion different from the portion corresponding to the food 1.

  On the other hand, in the case where the food 1 is a secondary product, the integrally grown product means “a portion that is grown together with the raw material of the food 1 and is different from the raw material of the food 1”.

  Specifically, in the case of processed foods that are processed foods such as rice cakes, apples, beans, rice, potatoes, sweet potatoes, etc., where food 1 is a secondary product, the raw material of processed foods (e.g. Bean, rice, potato, sweet potato, etc.), such as leaves, roots, branches, stems, bran, vines, shells, ears of rice, flowers, etc. However, the integrally grown product is a portion different from the raw material of the processed food (food 1).

  Furthermore, in the case of beer in which the food 1 is a secondary product, examples of the integrally grown product include wheat ears and hop flowers that have grown together with the raw materials of beer (malt, hops, etc.). However, the integrally grown product is a portion different from the raw material of beer (food 1).

By the way, as an alternative to the integral growth, the alternative integral growth may be sealed in the food powder enclosure 5.
Here, in the case where the food 1 is a secondary product, the alternative integrated growth means “a portion that is grown integrally with the alternative raw material of the food 1 and is different from the portion corresponding to the raw material of the food 1”. means.
In addition, an alternative raw material means the thing which grew separately from the raw material of the food product A on the substantially the same conditions as the raw material of the foodstuff 1.

  Specifically, in the case of processed foods that are processed from strawberries, apples, beans, rice, potatoes, sweet potatoes, etc., where food 1 is a secondary product, as an alternative integrated growth product, raw materials for processed foods (strawberry, apples) , Beans, rice, potato, sweet potato, etc.) , Vine, shell, ear of rice, flower, etc. However, the alternative integrated growth product is a portion different from the portion corresponding to the raw material of the processed food (food 1).

  Furthermore, in the case of beer whose food 1 is a secondary product, as an alternative integrated growth product, an alternative raw material such as malt or hop grown by applying the same fertilizer on the same farm as the raw material of beer (malt, hop, etc.) Wheat and hop flowers grown together. However, the alternative integral growth is a portion different from the portion corresponding to the raw material of beer (food 1).

[effect]
In an example of the food product to which the present invention described above is applied, since the food 1 and the food powder inclusion body 5 are integrated, when providing the food 1, not only the food 1 but inevitably food powder. The enclosure 5 will also be provided. In this way, since the food powder inclusion body 5 can be provided to the consumer together with the food 1, the factors affected in the process until the food 1 is provided to the consumer can be grasped. The person can select the food product with greater peace of mind, and the reliability of the food product will be improved.

  In addition, by providing the food powder inclusion body 5 to the consumer, it is possible to know a portion that is usually in the background of the food 1 and is not visible to the consumer, and can make the product more familiar. The consumption of food product A can be expected to increase.

  In addition, by actually providing the food powder inclusion body 5, it becomes possible to sufficiently grasp the substance of the growth process of the provided food and the raw material of the food. In other words, for example, the case of disclosing information on mono-growth products as text information is conceivable, but only perceptual understanding based on text information can be used to grasp the substance of the growth process of the provided food and food ingredients. Insufficient.

  Furthermore, by providing the consumer with the food powder inclusion body 5 in which the food powder 4 and water are enclosed, it becomes possible to facilitate understanding of the quality of the food 1. That is, when a raw material powder sample is attached (for example, in the case of the technique described in JP2009-5656 A), it is difficult to understand the quality of food unless the raw material powder sample is inspected. On the other hand, when the food powder inclusion body 5 is provided, the quality of the food 1 may be judged at a glance without performing the inspection or the like, although the inspection may be required in some cases. This makes it easier to understand quality.

  Specifically, for example, in the case of “a raw material powder sample in which a powder of vegetables grown without agrochemicals is mixed with water”, the degree of discoloration is small even after about 10 days. On the other hand, in the case of “a raw material powder sample obtained by mixing vegetables such as vegetables grown using inorganic fertilizers, fungicides, insecticides, herbicides, etc.” with water, the degree of discoloration after about 10 days And a bad odor is generated. From such changes in discoloration and odor, it can be determined that “agricultural chemicals are not sprayed or the amount of sprayed agricultural chemicals is small”.

Similarly, for example, in the case of “a raw material powder sample in which a powder of vegetables and the like grown without using chemical fertilizers and without agricultural chemicals is mixed with water”, the degree of discoloration is maintained even after about 20 to 30 days. There is little, no smell, and almost no gas is generated. On the other hand, in the case of a “raw material powder sample in which powder of vegetables grown using chemical fertilizers, agricultural chemicals, etc. is mixed with water”, after about 20 to 30 days, the degree of discoloration is large, with bad odor. Gas is generated. From such discoloration, odor, and gas state, it can be judged that “the presence or absence of chemical fertilizers and pesticides is large or small”. In this way, when the food powder inclusion body 5 is taken home and stored and observed for about 30 days, the true contents (identity) of the food can be understood.
In addition, when vegetable powder used for processed vegetables is attached (for example, in the case of the technique described in JP 2009-5656 A), information on agricultural chemicals can be obtained unless the powder is inspected. Can not.

In consideration of the above points, it is better to accommodate the food powder inclusion body 5 that has passed a certain period of time (for example, about 10 days or about 20 to 30 days) after the food powder and water are encapsulated in the accommodating recess 3. preferable.
By doing so, it is possible to confirm the change of the accessory at the purchase stage of the food product A, and to provide the consumer with a judgment material such as whether or not to purchase the food product A.

  In addition, by being able to judge the quality of the food 1 without the need for inspection or the like, it is possible to obtain information used as a material for judging the safety of the quality of the food 1 before the consumer purchases the food product A It is possible to provide the consumer with information such as whether or not to do so. On the other hand, if the inspection of the quality of the food 1 requires inspection, the information on the safety of the quality of the food 1 is obtained for the first time after purchase. Can not be provided to the person.

  Furthermore, it is possible to inspect whether or not it is a genetically modified organism (GMO) using a food powder using a fluorescence microscope or the like. Information such as whether or not alternative crops are included can also be obtained.

[Modification]
In the first embodiment described above, the case where the food powder inclusion body 5 is transparent is described as an example, but it is sufficient if the food powder 4 can be provided to the consumer together with water. The food powder inclusion body 5 is not necessarily transparent. However, it is preferable that the state (for example, discoloration) of the food powder 4 can be confirmed at a glance from the outside. Considering this point, it is preferable that at least a part of the food powder inclusion body 5 is transparent.

  In the first embodiment described above, a bag-shaped food powder enclosure 5 in which the food powder 4 is hermetically sealed together with water is described as an example. It is conceivable that a plastic bottle with a lid is used as the food powder enclosure 5 when gas is generated, and that the lid is loosened when gas is generated.

  Further, in the first embodiment described above, the case where only the food powder inclusion body 5 is accommodated in the accommodating recess 3 is described as an example, but it is read by a computer that records various information on the food powder. A possible recording medium may be accommodated in the accommodating recess 3 together with the food powder enclosure 5. As a recording medium, a memory card such as a USB memory, a memory disk such as a CD, MD, or DVD, an IC tag, or the like can be used.

  Here, without recording predetermined information on the recording medium, a description item describing a URL, a two-dimensional barcode, or the like, or a recording medium recording a URL, a two-dimensional barcode, etc. are accommodated in the accommodating recess 3. Alternatively, the address where the information exists may be informed so that the information can be browsed by accessing a recording medium of a specific server on the Internet using a computer or a mobile phone.

  Furthermore, the storage recess 3 may store an environmental record that records the actual environment when the food 1 is manufactured.

  Here, environmental records include, for example, photos of cultivation sites of raw materials and processing plants, soil analysis results, information on genetic recombination, changes in temperature, humidity and rainfall, production management status, quality inspection status, food And recording paper that records the characteristics and selling points of food ingredients, voices of workers, and the like. In addition, other examples include data that records the processing date and processing method such as fertilization, top fertilization, weeding, and insecticidal treatment.

  In addition, you may accommodate an environmental record thing with the recording medium which recorded the various information regarding the above-mentioned food powder. In that case, the environmental recorded material may be separated from the recording medium, or the environmental recorded material may be recorded on the recording medium together with various information on the food powder.

Furthermore, in the first embodiment described above, the case where the housing recess 3 is formed at the bottom of the container 2 is described as an example. However, the position where the housing recess 3 is formed is limited to the bottom of the container 2. It is not something that can be done.
However, when the housing recess 3 is formed at the bottom of the container 2, even if the food powder 4 leaks out of the food powder inclusion body 5, the food powder 4 is contained in the food 1 inside the container 2. Therefore, it is preferable that the housing recess 3 is formed on the bottom of the container 2. When the consumer purchases the food product A, when placing importance on placing the food powder inclusion body 5 at a more easily viewable position, the food powder inclusion body 5 is disposed above the container 2. Become.

In the first embodiment described above, one food powder enclosure 5 is attached to one container 2 containing the food 1, but the container 2 and the food powder enclosure 5 are not necessarily provided. There is no need for a one-to-one correspondence.
For example, a plurality of containers 2 containing food 1 may be collected and stored in a packaging box, and one food powder enclosure 5 may be stored in the packaging box.

  In the first embodiment described above, the case where the container 2 containing the food 1 and the food powder enclosure 5 are integrated is described as an example. It is sufficient if the body 5 can be provided, and the food 1 and the food powder inclusion body 5 do not necessarily have to be integrated.

  For example, when a product display shelf is provided with a partition plate in a store or the like and partitioned, and the food product A is displayed in each partition, the food powder enclosure 5 may be displayed in each partition.

  Furthermore, when the same producer or the same production group (multiple people) sells alone (one unit) on the shelf in the store, shelves for the products of the same producer and the same production group arranged for each shelf. The food powder inclusion bodies 5 may be provided side by side.

  Further, as a method for providing the food powder inclusion body 5, when the consumer purchases the food 1, the food powder inclusion body 5 may be provided together with the food 1, or when the food 1 is sent by courier, the food powder inclusion body The food powder inclusion body 5 may be provided when the food 1 is provided by a vending machine.

Further, in the first embodiment described above, the description is given by taking food powder as an example, but in other words, the case where the accessory body is in powder form is explained as an example, The accessory body need not necessarily be in powder form. In other words, if the accessory body is provided to the consumer and the factors affected in the process until the food 1 is provided to the consumer can be grasped, the accessory body does not necessarily have to be in powder form. No. For example, in addition to powder, it may be cut into pieces, cut into pieces, and immersed in water, or may be cut while rotating with a mixer.
However, it is preferable that the accessory body is powdery because the accessory body is likely to change in the accessory contained together with water by making the accessory body powdery.
