　料理をオーダーする際には、視覚から得られる情報、すなわち、料理の名前、写真、説明等を見て選択することが一般的である。しかし、これらの情報のみでは、食したことのない料理の味や匂いを想像することが困難である。また、食したことのある料理であっても、視覚では感知できない点、例えば、辛さの程度、味付けに使用されている香辛料の味や匂い等を感知することはできない。このため、実際にオーダーしてみなければ、その料理を食べることができるか否かが不明である。 When ordering a dish, it is common to select it by looking at information obtained from the visual sense, that is, the name, picture, description, etc. of the dish. However, it is difficult to imagine the taste and smell of a dish that has never been eaten with only this information. Moreover, even a dish that has been eaten cannot be sensed visually, for example, the degree of spiciness, the taste or smell of spices used for seasoning. For this reason, it is unclear whether or not the dish can be eaten unless it is actually ordered.

　本発明によれば、例えば、前記凍結乾燥体を舐めることで、その料理の味を感知でき、且つ、前記凍結乾燥体の匂いを嗅ぐことで、その料理の匂いを感知できる。このため、例えば、客は、料理のオーダーを確定する前に、視覚だけでなく、味覚および嗅覚を用いて、オーダーしてみたい料理の見た目、味、および匂いから、オーダーを確定できる。これにより、食したことがない料理、例えば、外国の料理、一般的ではない料理等であっても、安心してオーダーでき、オーダーはしたものの、食べることができないこと等を防ぐことができる。このため、本発明は、例えば、外国からの観光客等に料理を提供する際に、非常に有用といえる。また、本発明によれば、例えば、カレーやアジア料理のように、店によって辛さが異なったり、辛さの程度が複数存在する場合に、食べることができる辛さの程度を知ることができる。また、コリアンダー等のハーブや、八角、シナモン等の香辛料は、人によって好き嫌いが異なるが、写真ではわからないことが多いため、これらが使用された料理のオーダーに、特に有効である。さらに、前記凍結乾燥体は、料理そのものから調製されていることから、例えば、アレルギー対象物としての記載情報が十分ではない場合に、舐めることで確認することも可能である。 According to the present invention, for example, the taste of the dish can be sensed by licking the freeze-dried body, and the smell of the dish can be sensed by smelling the smell of the freeze-dried body. For this reason, for example, the customer can determine the order from the appearance, taste, and smell of the food that he / she wants to order using not only the visual sense but also the sense of taste and smell before confirming the order of the food. Thereby, even a dish that has not been eaten, for example, a foreign dish, an uncommon dish, etc., can be ordered with peace of mind, and although it has been ordered, it can be prevented that it cannot be eaten. For this reason, it can be said that the present invention is very useful when, for example, providing food to foreign tourists. Further, according to the present invention, it is possible to know the degree of spiciness that can be eaten when, for example, curry and Asian foods differ in spiciness or there are a plurality of spiciness levels. . In addition, herbs such as coriander and spices such as octagon and cinnamon differ in liking and dislike depending on the person, but in many cases they are not understood in the photographs, so they are particularly effective in ordering dishes in which they are used. Furthermore, since the freeze-dried body is prepared from the dish itself, it can be confirmed by licking, for example, when the description information as an allergy object is not sufficient.
　本発明のオーダー補助ツールは、例えば、前記凍結乾燥体が、前記担体の表面に固定化されている。 In the order assistance tool of the present invention, for example, the freeze-dried body is immobilized on the surface of the carrier.
　本発明のオーダー補助ツールは、例えば、前記凍結乾燥体が、前記担体に封入されている。 In the order assistance tool of the present invention, for example, the freeze-dried body is enclosed in the carrier.
　本発明のオーダー補助ツールは、例えば、前記担体が、唾液により溶解する可溶性担体である。 In the order assisting tool of the present invention, for example, the carrier is a soluble carrier that dissolves in saliva.
　本発明のオーダー補助ツールは、例えば、前記担体が、噛むことにより内容物が放出する担体である。 The order assistance tool of the present invention is, for example, a carrier from which contents are released when the carrier is bitten.

　本発明のプログラムは、前記本発明のオーダー方法を、コンピュータ上で実行可能なプログラムである。または、本発明のプログラムは、例えば、コンピュータ読み取り可能な記録媒体に記録されてもよい。前記記録媒体としては、特に限定されず、例えば、読み出し専用メモリ（ＲＯＭ）、ハードディスク（ＨＤ）、光ディスク、フロッピー（登録商標）ディスク（ＦＤ）等、前述のようなものがあげられる。 The program of the present invention is a program that can execute the ordering method of the present invention on a computer. Alternatively, the program of the present invention may be recorded on a computer-readable recording medium, for example. The recording medium is not particularly limited, and examples thereof include read-only memory (ROM), hard disk (HD), optical disk, floppy (registered trademark) disk (FD) and the like as described above.
　以上、実施形態を参照して本発明を説明したが、本発明は、上記実施形態に限定されるものではない。本発明の構成や詳細には、本発明のスコープ内で当業者が理解し得る様々な変更をすることができる。 As mentioned above, although this invention was demonstrated with reference to embodiment, this invention is not limited to the said embodiment. Various changes that can be understood by those skilled in the art can be made to the configuration and details of the present invention within the scope of the present invention.
　本発明によれば、例えば、前記凍結乾燥体を舐めることで、その料理の味を感知でき、且つ、前記凍結乾燥体の匂いを嗅ぐことで、その料理の匂いを感知できる。このため、例えば、客は、料理のオーダーを確定する前に、視覚だけでなく、味覚および嗅覚を用いて、オーダーしてみたい料理の見た目、味、および匂いから、オーダーを確定できる。これにより、食したことがない料理、例えば、外国の料理、一般的ではない料理等であっても、安心してオーダーでき、オーダーはしたものの、食べることができないこと等を防ぐことができる。このため、本発明は、例えば、外国からの観光客等に料理を提供する際に、非常に有用といえる。また、本発明によれば、例えば、カレーやアジア料理のように、店によって辛さが異なったり、辛さの程度が複数存在する場合に、食べることができる辛さの程度を知ることができる。また、コリアンダー等のハーブや、八角、シナモン等の香辛料は、人によって好き嫌いが異なるが、写真ではわからないことが多いため、これらが使用された料理のオーダーに、特に有効である。さらに、前記凍結乾燥体は、料理そのものから調製されていることから、例えば、アレルギー対象物としての記載情報が十分ではない場合に、舐めることで確認することも可能である。 According to the present invention, for example, the taste of the dish can be sensed by licking the freeze-dried body, and the smell of the dish can be sensed by smelling the smell of the freeze-dried body. For this reason, for example, the customer can determine the order from the appearance, taste, and smell of the food that he / she wants to order using not only the visual sense but also the sense of taste and smell before confirming the order of the food. Thereby, even a dish that has not been eaten, for example, a foreign dish, an uncommon dish, etc., can be ordered with peace of mind, and although it has been ordered, it can be prevented that it cannot be eaten. For this reason, it can be said that the present invention is very useful when, for example, providing food to foreign tourists. Further, according to the present invention, it is possible to know the degree of spiciness that can be eaten when, for example, curry and Asian foods differ in spiciness or there are a plurality of spiciness levels. . In addition, herbs such as coriander and spices such as octagon and cinnamon differ in liking and dislike depending on the person, but in many cases they are not understood in the photographs, so they are particularly effective in ordering dishes in which they are used. Furthermore, since the freeze-dried body is prepared from the dish itself, it can be confirmed by licking, for example, when the description information as an allergy object is not sufficient.
