I know I'm missing something, but I can't figure what it is. Any ideas?
grocery_item = { "item" => "Bread", "quantity" => 1, "brand" => "Treehouse Bread Company" }
if (grocery_item.has_value?("Bread"))
puts grocery_item.unshift["food" => true]
end

Treehouse Guest TeacherHello Robert,
Inside your if condition try assigning "food" to true this way without puts.
grocery_item["food"] = true
I hope this helps.

Seems very close but I think Jason Seifer already explained about "store" - @4:08. Other thing is to remove some brackets and don't have to use "puts" that will do automatically by using store method to add key/value to the hash.
Example:
grocery_item = { "item" => "Bread", "quantity" => 1, "brand" => "Treehouse Bread Company" }
if grocery_item.has_value?("Bread")
grocery_item.store("food", true)
end
Hope that helps
