The Modifying function implies asking questions such as "<em>What could you add to modify this product</em>?" or "<em>What element of this product could you strengthen to create something new</em>?" which looks for spotting lacking features of products to improve them according to consumers' preference.

Thus, <em>by deciding to change the spices of Indian traditional food for less spicy ingredients to fit Americans' food habits, Rashmi is using the modifying component of the SCAMPER tool.</em>
