Disclosed herein is a transformation system for at least one component of a single or multi-component nutritional substance. The transformation system obtains information regarding the nutritional substance to be transformed, the desired transformation, and the desired properties, including nutritional content, of the transformed nutritional substance, and dynamically modifies the transformation in response to this information. Also disclosed herein is an information system that enables the rapid determination of a nutritional substance's compliance, or non-compliance, with a consumer's nutritional substance requirements.
