Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. How many servings should you have of grains per day?

Answer: 6-11 servings

Some examples of grains would be bread, noodles, and cereal. Breads are a very important part of your diet, so make sure you get enough each day.
2. How many servings of dairy should you have each day?

Answer: 2-3 servings

Dairy includes milk, cheese, and yogurt. Remember that calcium builds strong bones and minds.
3. How much protein (for example, meats) should you consume in one day?

Answer: 2-3 servings

This group of food has meat, eggs, fish, and even peanut butter! This food group contains iron which strengthens oxygen transport and metabolism.
4. How many servings of fruit should be eaten in one day?

Answer: 2-4

Examples of fruit would be apples, bananas, peaches, and watermelon. Did you know that fruit prevents strokes and cardiovascular diseases! Make sure that you wash it before you eat it though!
5. You need at least 3-5 servings of vegetables each day.

Answer: True

The vegetable group consists of things like green beans, corn, potatoes, and broccoli. Vegetables can help to fight cancers and they help maintain a good diet. Veggies taste great when dipped in ranch dressing.
6. How many servings should you get from the fats and oils group?

Answer: 0

Fats and oils are bad for you in large amounts, but they can contain calcium and other good vitamins and minerals. So a few servings shouldn't hurt anybody, just make sure you eat them sparingly!
7. Oh dear, I am completely lost! Can you put me in my correct group? I am a cucumber.

Answer: Fruits

A cucumber is actually a fruit, although we usually think of them as vegetables. You can buy them in a store or grow them in your own garden. Did you know that a cucumber is made into pickles by soaking in vinegar?
8. I am a lost food, too. I am a slice of cheese. Where do I go?

Answer: Dairy

Cheese comes from milk and milk comes from cows. Did you know that when gas prices go up, so do milk prices? When gas prices go up, it costs more for the shipping trucks to deliver the milk, then it costs the store more to buy it, so it costs us more to buy it from the store! Odd how that works out.
9. I am tricky to place. I taste really good with jelly (jam). Where would I, peanut butter, go?

Answer: Protein

It is kind of weird how peanut butter turns out to be a protein, isn't it? Proteins are a group that some people avoid. These people are vegetarians. They don't eat meat, so they eat things that aren't meat but have protein. Like peanut butter and trail mix.
10. Well I am the final one to be placed. Bread is my name and I taste great with butter. Where do I go?

Answer: Grains

This product is great as a sandwich and makes the perfect pair for spaghetti as garlic bread. Well this is my quiz about eating right and staying healthy. Make sure that what you eat helps you to be healthy! Thank you for taking my quiz! Please send in your comments!
