   The Food Pyrimid is a LIE!
  It seems that the US government is lying about healthy diets in order to promote the economy.Harvard Nutritionist Says USDA 'Food Pyramid' Is WrongQuote:In Chapter 1 Willett, a long-time critic of the pyramid, writes, "The thing to keep in mind about the USDA Pyramid is that it comes from the [U.S.] Department of Agriculture, the agency responsible for promoting American agriculture, not from agencies established to monitor and protect our health, like the Department of Health and Human Services, or the National Institutes of Health, or the Institute of Medicine. "And there's the root of the problem--what's good for some agricultural interests isn't necessarily good for the people who eat their products. 
  "Iraq has WMDs.""Unless we give Wall Street $700 billion, we're all gonna die.""You must eat this."You seem surprised.   ;  Pyramidic food is LIE! You cannot deny the truth of FOOD CUBE!!!11   ;  If you need the government to tell you what a healthy diet and lifestyle is, then you're already beyond help :)   ;Quote:Original post by ZahlmanPyramidic food is LIE! You cannot deny the truth of FOOD CUBE!!!11Everyone knows that the food CILINDER is far more superior. Now shut up with your inferior cube.   ;  Most developed countries have a similar "food guide." For instance, Canada's food guide is mostly similar to that of the American one, although an argument could also be made that we are selling out to the powerful cow-industrial complex. Is the US leaning on foreign countries to force them to play along with their sick conspiracy? Who knows?I think a more pressing issue for Americans about whether their food guide has "sold out" is the accessibility of good food to poorer neighborhoods:Quote:Buying fresh food is difficult. There's a scant 6.8 retail food outlets for every 100,000 residents, or one supermarket, local grocer or convenience store for every 6,000 people, according to a report prepared by the CHC in April. Adjacent neighbourhoods in West Los Angeles, meanwhile, boasted 26.6 retail food outlets for every 100,000 residents. Only five per cent of South L.A.'s food stores are full-service national or regional supermarket chains, versus one-third of food stores in West Los Angeles neighbourhoods. Burkhardt and her roommate, Kristen Martinez, a 22-year-old forklift operator, are among the 16 per cent of South L.A. residents who must travel 20 minutes or more to reach their preferred grocery store — the discount chain Food 4 Less — and must rely on a friend to drive them the 20-minute journey twice a month; by bus, it takes 45 minutes.We also have a similar problem in the northern territories and local government is trying to solve it there by showcasing alternatives at point of sale.   ;  Too much geometry.Just FOOD CHAIN,with raptor on the top, as usual :))   ;this site has the picture of the new food pyramid   ;  This is the real food pyramid:;Quote:Original post by ToolmakerQuote:Original post by ZahlmanPyramidic food is LIE!
