Automatic food type recognition is an essential task of dietary monitoring. It helps medical professionals recognize a user's food contents, estimate the amount of energy intake, and design a personalized intervention model to prevent many chronic diseases, such as obesity and heart disease. Various wearable and mobile devices are utilized as platforms for food type recognition. However, none of them has been widely used in our daily lives and, at the same time, socially acceptable enough for continuous wear. In this paper, we propose a food type recognition method that takes advantage of Airpods Pro, a pair of widely used wireless in-ear headphones designed by Apple, to recognize 20 different types of food. As far as we know, we are the first to use this socially acceptable commercial product to recognize food types. Audio and motion sensor data are collected from Airpods Pro. Then 135 representative features are extracted and selected to construct the recognition model using the lightGBM algorithm. A real-world data collection is conducted to comprehensively evaluate the performance of the proposed method for seven human subjects. The results show that the average f1-score reaches 94.4% for the ten-fold cross-validation test and 96.0% for the self-evaluation test.
