Brain Food:

The "New" Food Pyramid



DO YOU WALK LIKE AN EGYPTIAN OR LIKE A FAT AMERICAN? The Food Pyramid has been around and a familiar thing since the 70s.  What you may not know is that in 2005 they (the USDA) came out with a new one to reflect a better descrition of how to eat healthier.

Gone are the building blocks of the old pyramid that left the chocolate in that little box waaaay up at the peak.  Now the fun stuff (labeled "oils") is now a sliver of yellow.  You can look this up for all the specific deets (cannot believe I just wrote that-loathe when people say that) details online yourself  'cause it is not my place to recommend anything for a time frame for physical  activity nor a daily diet.....just the recommedations of a meal or snack that I have come up with or tweaked.  Fat readers--look it up.  For your health, not because I'm a dick.
