preparation tips, or nutritional information.
• Add your own instructions or recipes to a food item. If you love to use cream of
mushroom soup to make your favorite casserole, but always have to look up the
recipe, simply attach a recording to the barcode for the soup. Next time you scan it,
the recipe will be at your fingertips.
