A first step could be adding a shortcut for selecting a category, e.g. typing carrots #veg would store carrots in the fruit & veg category.
This could be done simply using an input in which case this should fail gracefully but perhaps display a toast notification indicating a failure (e.g. for an unrecognised category). A more complex but visual method would be doing away with an input and highlighting with a pill when a category is recognised, similar to the screenshot below from todoist
An extension could be adding inline notes, e.g. carrots #veg -large bag
Doing this properly would involve the contenteditable attribute which makes things a bit more complicated. Could potentially do a simplified version with a normal input however.
