By now, you probably know the food guide pyramid by heart.
But do you know how many calories are in your food choices?
Write down what you eat for a day and use the Calorie Database
to calculate the calories you consume in each food group.
Do you stay within the serving limits set by the pyramid?
If not, what can you change about your eating habits?

Bacteria are everywhere but they are especially dangerous
in the kitchen. Take the "Dinner Dilemma" challenge
and help make dinner without picking up any pesky bacteria.
If you picked up a few bacteria along the way, there's probably
more you should know about food safety. Take this interactive
food safety quiz

and find out how much you really know about keeping food germ
free.
