Users will want to fill out / share a personal food profile with meal planners and reservation makers (concierges, travel agents, office assistants, event planners, healthcare aides, friends and family) so their food preferences, allergies and/or dietetic needs will be considered.
2. Hypothesis
Users will want to fill out / share a personal food
profile with meal planners and reservation makers
(concierges, travel agents, office assistants, event
planners, healthcare aides, friends and family) so
their food preferences, allergies and/or dietetic
needs will be considered.

3. Online Surveys
We posed this hypothesis to 31 respondents via
one online survey and tested it via several face-
to-face interviews.

4. Roughly 2/3 of respondents would willingly share their food
profile with meal planners.
5. The majority of respondents would take from 30 seconds to
2 minutes filling out a food profile.
6. 19/31 respondents find it difficult to find restaurants that fit
their food preferences when traveling.
7. 21 respondents would use the Food Compass sometimes
and often to find similar restaurants they preferred back
home when traveling. Only 1/31 said never.
8. Additional Analysis:
The focus of this survey centered around using the Food Compass while
traveling. Thus, more research should be done to confirm that the service is
just as worthwhile while at home.
