Day 1
Canada’s Food Guide Actual Intake
Vegetables and Fruit 7 servings 6 servings
Grain Products 6 servings 2 servings
Milk and Alternatives 3-4 servings 0 servings

When comparing my diet in terms of meat and alternatives, it conforms fairly well to the Canada’s food guide. It is suggested to consume 2 servings a day and I was only 0.5 servings short.
