No More Pyramid

Did you know that we no longer have a food guide pyramid to illustrate the recommended daily servings for each food group. Two of the outdated versions are shown below.

Instead, we have MyPlate. It was developed as a simple, easy to understand icon that reminds consumers to eat healthfully. It includes the five food groups we need to have at our meals; fruits, vegetables, proteins, grains, and dairy.
