You are what you eat

The government has a new food pyramid. A poll said that although 70 percent of people recognized the food pyramid, hardly anyone followed it...(note: I truly doubt that 70 percent of people actually recognized the pyramid...but then I doubt 70 percent of people know who George Bush is...)

The goal of the pyramid program was to condense the 70-page Dietary Guidelines into a graphic that would be useful to the public

Yup. One truly doubts that anyone would read seventy pages of guidelines. However, one wonders if people will have time or energy to figure this out either...

There is a flash animation to teach you what to eat etc...

Oh, heck...let's try the Mediterranean diet instead: Pizza for breakfast, pizza for lunch, and spaghetti for supper.

Chef Boyardee, call your office...
