I don't entirely understand what is being asked in these tasks for hash's. Can you send me the solution so I can see?

?

hash.rb 
grocery_item = { "item" => "Bread", "quantity" => 1, "brand" => "Treehouse Bread Company" }
grocery_item.has_value?("Bread")
grocery_item["food"] = "True"

Do you find your mistake? If not please look closer to your

grocery_item["food"] = "True"

irb(main):001:0> grocery_item={"item"=>"Bread","quantity"=>1,"brand"=>"Treehouse Bread Company"}                                                                                                                      
=> {"item"=>"Bread", "quantity"=>1, "brand"=>"Treehouse Bread Company"}                                                                                                                                               
irb(main):002:0> grocery_item.has_value?("Bread")
