Ah, the food pyramid. I've been told by a few doctors that the food pyramid favors grains too much, even if they're healthy, whole grains.

My pyramid would look something like this:


/Fats and Oils (mostly olive and veggie oils)\
/Eggs and Dairy (about 6 eggs a week, and some cheeses\
/Lean Meats (poultry, pork, fish)/Nuts (walnuts, etc.)/Legumes (lentils! etc.)\
/Grains (whole wheat crackers, couscous, whole grain pastas, whole grain cereals\
/Fruits and Veggies (everything from apples and oranges to onions and bell peppers, plus the stuff I grow)\
