An interview survey was conducted of local government officers to investigate the standard of meal delivery services provided for the elderly by local governments. The nutritional quality was numerically defined by some interviewees, but not by all. The costs per meal was shared equally by all users in some cases, but the cost varied in other cases, depending on the use of different delivery services. The results show that, in many cases, the local government does not pay much attention to the contents of the meals provided by their delivery service. Given the aim of helping the elderly to live at home, maintain their health, and further improve their conditions, it is suggested that more care needs to be taken to check the meal content provided for local government by the meal delivery services.
