the definition of shop=food is way way way to vague to have meaning. it needs to be much narrower.
it is like shop=goods. we don’t need that either. > On Oct 11, 2018, at 1:10 AM, Jmapb <jm...@gmx.com> wrote: > > > Amen!

"Also, I am clueless as to how to enter a "gourmet food store" to begin with. Any help or clarification in this matter would be greatly appreciated” (from the talk page) I think this is the interesting bit - and one tagging shop=food is trying to solve. By being a catch-all, it has no set value. Carve off specialty import/foreign goods into it’s own tag, and perhaps shop=gourmet for fancy specialty foods (though perhaps those are shop=deli ?? I dont know). the continued discussion for take-n-bake shops (still feels like fast food to me, but I will defer to the group) also removes a lot of those uses. What is left? probably a bunch of mis-tagged shops. somewhere out there is Jimbo’s turnip store and Taro’s Mochi shop, but those can probably filter into other tags as well (greengrocer, dessert, etc). I don’t think we should have shop=food + food=turnip or shop=food + food=mochi. Honey shops? Miso Paste? we use shop=yes and sells=* for those (as I understand it) https://www.openstreetmap.org/edit#map=20/36.29292/139.53096 <https://www.openstreetmap.org/edit#map=20/36.29292/139.53096> for the oddball shops, this seems to be the solution to me.
