What food group is curry in?

If it is a takeaway meat curry, it borders into both "protein" and "fat" food groups. If it is a takeaway vegetable curry, it is (most likely) to be both "fruit/veg" and "fats" food groups.

If it is a homemade "healthy" meat curry, it is primairly the "protein" food group, unless it is cream-based/coconut based, in which case it is again "protein" and "fat". If it is a homemade vegetable curry, it is primarily "fruit/veg" food group.

(The distinction between takeaway and homemade is made due to most takeaway curries using a high proportion of fats and oils during the cookery process. Generally the amounts used in home cooking are far less.)

What food group is sodas in?

Soda is not a food, and does not belong in a food group. It has been artificially manufactured, and is not needed by the body. Therefore it is not part of the 'healthy eating triangle'.

Although it is very nice, try to not depend on it as your only liquid source, as the caffeine can actually make you feel more dehydrated and you can become addicted. Water exists :) Soda does not contain any nutritional benefits. It is what is known as 'empty calories'; is no nutrients present, pure energy.

Sorry, but it isn't exactly the most nutritious thing one could consume :)
