QUIZ: Do You Really Know Dairy?
As nutrition lingo changes, so do the words plastered onto food labels—and there's no section of the supermarket that's more dizzying than the dairy aisle. (Did you know, for instance, nonfat is the new skim?). Don't waste another minute wondering which yogurt to toss into your shopping cart. We asked Sandra Maltzman, RD, nutrition director at LA Weight Loss, to create this five-question quiz that separates dairy fact from myth. Check your answers to see if you know how light and low-fat differ, if women who eat high-dairy diets really burn more belly fat, and how to meet your daily calcium needs if you don't drink milk.
Answer these 5 Qs correctly and crown yourself a dairy queen.

I took dairy quiz and got a 40%, shocked at how little I thought I knew about dairy. Thanks Jules for the article.
