Let me work through this step by step to match each food item to its correct food group.
Step 1: Identify each food item and think about which category it belongs to.
Left column items:
- Chicken - This is meat, so it's a protein
- Pear - This is a fruit
- Cheese - This is made from milk, so it's dairy
- Celery - This is a vegetable
Right column items:
- Bread - This is made from grains (wheat)
- Milk - This is a dairy product
- Strawberry - This is a fruit
- Beans - These are a source of protein
Step 2: Match them to the five food groups in the middle:
- Fruit
- Vegetables
- Grains
- Protein
- Dairy
Step 3: Let me verify each match:
- Chicken → Protein ✓
- Pear → Fruit ✓
- Cheese → Dairy ✓
- Celery → Vegetables ✓
- Bread → Grains ✓
- Milk → Dairy ✓
- Strawberry → Fruit ✓
- Beans → Protein ✓
All matches look correct!
Final Answer:
- Chicken → Protein
- Pear → Fruit
- Cheese → Dairy
- Celery → Vegetables
- Bread → Grains
- Milk → Dairy
- Strawberry → Fruit
- Beans → Protein
