This fifth group which has been added is simply called “others.” It contains foods which are primarily carbohydrates and fats that don’t fit into the other groups. The familiar four food groups and their requirements are the milk group, three or more glasses for children, two or more for adults, fruit and vegetable group, four or more servings, bread and cereal .group, four or more servings, and the meat group, two or more servings. The new fifth group includes cooking oil, salad dressing, catsup, butter, margarine, jello, jams and jellies. Also pie,

cookies, donuts, etc. These “other” foods are not so important for the nutrients they provide, but they do supply extra energy in the form of calories. The foods in this group are merely supplements and compliments to the good old basic four. How much of these “other” foods you should eat depends on your own energy needs. Active children may be able to eat more. But older folks may not be able to bum off those extra calories. The basic four food groups will still hold true and be used when referring to nutrient needs. The fifth group supplies mainly calories and over indulgence in this group will add qalories to your diet and may add extra pounds if they aren’t burned off.
