Hello @Shelton !
You already have this in your HTML file, you do not need to write the again code here.

Also, you have been provided with the variable name, calorieCounter, use it instead.
Since you’re getting the element by the id name, the name here "calorieCounter" should be the id value of the paragraph element in your HTML code.
