By default, conditions are performed against values in the current level of `fields` in your blueprint. If you need access to values outside of this context (eg. if you are in a replicator, trying to compare against fields outside of the replicator), you can access parent field values by prepending your field with `$parent`:

```yaml
if:
root.favorite_foods: includes bacon
$parent.favorite_foods: includes bacon
```

You can also access values at the top-level of your blueprint with `$root`:

```yaml
if:
$root.favorite_foods: includes bacon
```
