In Japan, although we can have get profits of many kinds of commercial food services and take-out foods in this decade, it seemed that some nutritional survey method could not respond in these diverse environment significantly. We tried to develop the software via semi-quantitative food frequency questionnaire that mainly responds for young people who depend on ready-made or commercial food service.
