If heavy petting is a sometimes food, can we build an alternative food pyramid?

Incidentally, I googled the food pyramid and it has gotten a lot more complicated since I first encountered it about 15 years go. Apparently we have more foods now.

Ahhh, yes. My Plate and its controversies. To be fair, the idea that kids oughtta be carb-loading came directly from the farm lobby and was pretty terrible, too.

As I recall, the school lunch program was run by the Army up until Nixon. After Nixon, it was run by the lobbyists.
