Abstract
Potential future food shortages due to global population growth and the effects of climate change
are currently a cause for concern. Some ingredients are expected to be in short supply in the next
decade or so, while others are expected to be readily available even beyond that time. The effective
use of ingredients that are expected to be available is important for dealing with food shortages. Based on these considerations, this paper proposes to address this issue with food swapping while cooking as a method of replacing food that is no longer available, alongside a food data strategy to promote its social deployment.
