Or

Diet \Di"et\, n. [F. di[`e]te, L. diaeta, fr. Gr. ? manner of living.]

1. Course of living or nourishment; what is eaten and drunk habitually;
food; victuals; fare. ``No inconvenient diet.'' --Milton. [1913 Webster]

2. A course of food selected with reference to a particular state of health;
prescribed allowance of food; regimen prescribed. [1913 Webster]

from dictionary.net.

Gee, Chung's diet fits right in with "prescribed allowance of food."
