Keep getting invalid product category when importing.

New to shopify.  I'm trying to import my products and I keep getting "invalid product category".  I've tried using both the number and text from the Shopify taxonomy page - the error remains.  Any ideas what I might be doing wrong?  For clarity, I assume it's complaining about col E of the csv titled "Product Category".

 

 

Here's the text from the error screen:

 

Product Category Home & Garden > Household Supplies > Waste Containment > Trash Cans & Wastebaskets

Product Type Trash Receptacle
