What is the "spoken menu concept"?

• It is a program at colleges and universities for blind students; a staff member at each food outlet is assigned to read the menu to those students who need assistance.
• It is a program used in some health care facilities in which a patient-care host takes food orders directly from patients, assembles the trays, delivers the trays to patients, and picks up and cleans the trays after the meal.
• It is a business and industry food service concept in which companies with on-site food service facilities require employees to phone in their food orders to the various on-site outlets ahead of time, thereby achieving savings on labor and food costs.
• It is a pilot program being tested at some universities in which students can design their own menus for each meal period and pay for their meals using smart cards
