Abstract: A system detects an object being viewed through a visual recognition system, the object having an associated expiration date. The system determines a caloric content associated with the object. The system assesses caloric consumption needs of at least one consumer. The system determines a likelihood of consumption of the object by the consumer based on the caloric content of the object, the caloric consumption needs of the consumer, and the expiration date of the object. The system is displayed as a gradient on a display device as an overlay associated with the object, the gradient representing a changing likelihood of total consumption of the object by the consumer over a period of time.
