Im not understanding this challenge

.

string_factory.py 
# Example:
# values = [{"name": "Michelangelo", "food": "PIZZA"}, {"name": "Garfield", "food": "lasagna"}]
# string_factory(values)
# ["Hi, I'm Michelangelo and I love to eat PIZZA!", "Hi, I'm Garfield and I love to eat lasagna!"]


def string_factory(dicts):
    new_list = []
    for name_and_food in dicts:
        new_template = template.format(name=name_and_food["name"], food=name_and_food["food"])
        new_list.append(new_template)
    return new_list
