If you really want to dig into semantic fuzzy search you can check out the wordnet project and chatscript, which provides an excellent lem , stem , and parse tool which tags each search term with its term in wordnet, so you can match against a hierarchy of concepts, including category of food. There are other solutions I’m sure but I’ve always wanted to make a local db search with this, I think it would be more structured and debuggable thank straight vector similarity
