Define a relation to the FOOD_TYPE table in the EOF modeler. Then the
dispay group editor will let you drill down and grab the name field or
other fields you want.
You will have to set up your display group to do parent child relationships
I think, that way when the user clicks on food eaten line, they will be
sent the page where FOODTYPE data is displayed, or you could just put it
all on one page; your choice.
hope this helps
