USDA launches new MYPLATE program

So this is what is now replacing the food pyramid. Hmmm. Study it for a minute and let me know your thoughts. I'll tell you mine. First of all, it doesn't state how much, how often. And having a protein, grain, fruit, vegetable and dairy at every meal is too much food. Also, where's the fat? Fat is actually really really important in our diet, I'm talking the good fats, like olive oil, nuts, and avocadoes.
I just wanted to post this, because this is what your children will be learning in school. So, educate yourself...and teach your children at home.
