Hi Evan again

I think plugin category only shows the objects (pages, posts, items etc) inside a category, not the subcategories themselves...

You could do it with the list plugin, but that's not trivial if you've never used it before PluginList

{LIST(searchable_only="0" cache="y")}
  {filter type="category"}
  {filter field="path" content="Food::*"}
{LIST}

But actually that doesn't really work so well...

There is a module that shows subcategories for a specific category, and you can use modules in a wiki plugin using the module plugin, like:

{module module="categories" categId="3" nobox="y"}

So probably that's the best - don't forget you need to validate the module plugin as an admin as it's a very powerful one!
