Food Revolution Day 2016 is just one week away! This week (in addition to joining Foodstand!) we launched the #foodrevolution International Omelette Challenge. It's the ultimate fast food, and de...
  • Brianne My favorite fast omelette filling: arugula and mushroom - because both items cook extremely quickly, are easy to chop, and add a ton of flavor - umami + spice! #FoodRevolution
  • mirasingh achaar like @chitraagrawal's Brooklyn Dehli Achaar. I make this for breakfast often because it takes me 5 minutes, tops!
  • munchiemummy Omelettes are my go-to, chuck-everything-in, lazy weeknight dinner. My favourite is just veggie-tactic: onions, peppers, spinach, mushrooms, tomatoes 👌🏼

Does matcha count?
7yr
I was wondering if matcha power counted as a fruit/vegetable since the powder is litterally ground up tea leaf. You don't just infuse it, you eat the fibers too. Does my matcha latte count as a por...
  • darkchocolatepeanutbutter Great question @anniemegusta! Unfortunately matcha does not count as a fruit or vegetable for this challenge even though it can be added to baked goods or smoothies. Try to incorporate more whole...
  • annefood Hey @anniemegusta ! Good question. While matcha has tons of antioxidants and is generally regarded to have many health benefits, it does not count as a fruit or vegetable for the Eat More...
Quick question should I count the Snapple I drink if I'm doing the soda challenge?
7yr Milwaukee, WI
  • annefood Hey @itscheezybabay ! Great question. Since Snapple is a sugar sweetened drink (or artificially sweetened for diet) you should count it as a soda.
  • itscheezybabay @annefood so I should just drink water during this challenge
  • DietID_TeamDietitians Yes definitely drink water during the Challenge. You can also drink seltzer if you're craving a fizzy drink, but be sure to get plain seltzer or naturally flavored seltzer like Poland spring lemon,...

The program is telling me to enter a code but when I try, the program does not recognize it. Is there a particular coded need. I will love to start my health habit journey but it will not allow to ...
  • DietID_TeamDietitians Hi @Monica101. You can choose a challenge without entering a code. Just go to the My Challenge tab (2nd tab) and you should see a list of challenges to choose from. Pick one from that list, choose...
  • Monica101 Thank you so much. I noticed some did not have levels but I think it was not tailored to my starting goal. Once again thank you. If you don't mind, may I add you to my buddy list since I am new.
  • DietID_TeamDietitians Great! I'm glad you were able to choose one. Yes, you most definitely can add me as a buddy =). I'm currently doing the Eat 5 fruits and veggies challenge.

Does dried pasta have added sugar?
7yr
I was wondering if dried pasta such as penne or spaghetti had added sugar or other artificial ingredients?
  • annefood Hey @Sim ! Dried pasta shouldn't contain any added sugar (or artificial ingredients). Typically the added sugar comes into play in jarred sauce—surprisingly, many tomato sauces have a lot of added...
  • Sim Thank you @annefood, looks like I'll be making my own pasta sauces from now on.
  • annefood You're welcome @Sim ! Making your own sauce is the definitely the best way to ensure good ingredients. Plus it's easy to freeze and have on hand. But when you are short of time and don't have any...
Do natural honey (got it from a farm) contains added sugar?
7yr
  • Emy hi. I'm not an expert, but my grandpa used to say, that honey is good for everything!
    Just use a little bit instead of sugar to sweet your meals :)
  • bestekaracay Thank you and to your grandpa! I will use just a little bit :)
  • annefood Hey @bestekaracay ! While @Emy 's Grandpa is right that honey can have health benefits—local honey is said to help with allergies, for example (shout out to @Emy 's Grandpa!) honey does count as an...

Do wheat tortillas contain extra sugar?
7yr
  • DietID_TeamDietitians Great question. Many wheat tortillas do have added sugar, e.g. Mission brand tortillas and Mayan tortillas. However there are some great brands that I love that don't have added sugar like the...
  • annefood Good question @saidaj . Yes, many store-bought tortillas do contain added sugar (Mission, for example). The best bet is a small, local brand that uses only a few ingredients. Unfortunately that...
  • saidaj Well, I live in Mexico and the tortillas that my mom buys are handmade and not store bought. Thus, there is no label.
