  • I guess all those doctors, dieticians and researchers should just chuck the Food Pyramid because you know so much more than they do.
    I'm happy for you.

    • Actually, they DID chuck the food pyramid years ago. Haha!

      "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."

      You can google up numerous other sources to learn more.

      • Yep, right on. It's ALL about the [U.S.] Department of Agriculture, is that what you are saying? Not about health but sales?
        Alrighty then, explain this; http://www.eufic.org/article/en/expid/food-based-dietary-guidelines-in-europe/
        I love the internet. One can find support for any stupid view one wishes, and some rather interesting facts, too.

        • The USDA itself got rid of the food pyramid, you dolt. They don't use it anymore. Now it's some plate thing. Go on their website and look.

          There is tons of reputable information debunking the food pyramid. It's not crazy nutjobs, it's legitimate science. The food pyramid never distinguished healthy grains from unhealthy, better proteins from worse (like chicken vs steak) and good fats from bad. That is fact. There's also that pesky fact I mentioned earlier...the food pyramid was chucked by the very agency that created it.

          • Boy, now I really respect your view more because you found it necessary to call me names. That so fortifies YOUR position.
            I'm not the one who has to worry about his unhealthy eating habits. When you are my age, you might very well regret some choices you made now, as your body breaks down prematurely. But if you don't give a shit, I certainly don't!

            • My body is going to break down prematurely because I eat veggies, fruit, meat and nuts, some dairy and only very limited healthy carbohydrates? Explain how please.
