Honorable Mention
Title：	vegetable font
Concept:	We satisfy our hunger by eating. As long as we have money, we can eat delicious foods at any time and in any place. But as a result, we tend to take the act of cooking for granted. There must be a way to make the experience of eating more enjoyable. The secret to enriching the experience of eating is hidden in the process of preparing food. I suggest the usage of "Vegetable Fonts" and give examples of how they could be used. Install "Vegetable Fonts" on the website where the recipes will be shown. When we ponder over what to make for dinner, we first think about the main ingredient. When we search for a recipe, we usually search for a dish using the main ingredient. Therefore, I've created a letter box in which Vegetable Fonts will appear by typing in the name of the main ingredient. By doing a search, the recipe for a side dish using the vegetable will be shown on the screen. By setting up an account, users will be able to rearrange the order of vegetables. This will also greatly benefit the operator of the site. Frequency in use of letters will reveal as a result which vegetables are frequently consumed and which ones are not. Analysis of consumption based on region and age will also be possible. An unexpected combination of Vegetable Fonts may bring you an encounter with new food as well as add elements of creation to the experience of eating. Expected combinations of Vegetable Fonts will bring to light the culture and society of each region.
Judge's Comments:	The graphics for the vegetable font are very beautiful and attractive, but the way the characters are used is somewhat difficult to understand. I'd like the presentation to enable us to better share the benefits and enjoyment of using the search system for main dishes and side dishes.
