.htaccess How to redirect multiple pages from one section to another section?

I've read many answers but keep getting 500 server errors so I'm obviously missing something simple.

The food-travel section has changed to /blog/ and I simply need to redirect all pages under /food-travel/ to /blog/

I've tried many variations but this is what I have currently:

RedirectMatch 301 ^/food-travel[/]?(.*) ^/blog[/]?(.*)

What am I missing? Any pointers in the right direction would be much appreciated.

You'd need to take a look into your http servers error log file for a more precise error message than "status 500". But even like this some things should be changed in your rule. It seems that you did not consider taking a look into the documentation of the RedirectMatch directive. Have a look over here: https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/mod_alias.html#redirectmatch

Most likely this is close to what you are looking for: 

RedirectMatch 301 ^/food-travel/?(.*)$ /blog/$1

Using RewriteRule 

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /

RewriteRule ^food-travel/(.*)$ /blog/$1 [L,NC,R=301]

or using RedirectMatch

RedirectMatch 301 ^/food-travel/(.*)$ /blog/$1
