Who Is In Charge of Your Plate?

I gagged when I heard someone on NPR saying that the new food plate pyramid introduced this week would be so good for busy moms. Who was that guy? How did he get so stuck in the past?This new image is so simple, it can help ANYONE dish up food wisely. Even men and children!I think kids will use it to demand smarter meals and whip their parents into shape.

And it certainly should make people think twice about restaurant meals, especially those restaurants where the only vegetables are hidden in salad bowls under dressing, meat, cheese, and eggs.

I love this image!

But it’s going to be pretty tough to cut up a porterhouse steak and stack it in that little corner!
