People have steadily grown fatter since the food pyramid debuted in 1992.
YOU THINK!!!!!????????
This makes me scratch my balding noggen as well:
Quote:
Critics have raised questions about the public relations agency hired to help create the new version of the pyramid. The firm, Porter Novelli (search), has food companies as clients, but both Agriculture Department and Porter Novelli officials have said the firm's industry work is handled separately and there would be no conflict of interest.
Ha? PR agency helping create a guidline on how I'm supposed to eat? I've been in the ad biz long enough to know most of it is BS. And I'm supposed to believe these people know the first thing about nutrition? Maybe getting the new pyramid out and burned into the minds of the public yes, but will it contain truth? We'll see.
I for one am a skeptic about anything our gov is doing. The backward pyramid taught to kids and parents for many years has killed thousands if not millions of people not to mention has help foster and support a couple of multi-trillion dollar industries (medical and Rx). This is fine, I can accept that population control is necessary to run a one world government. But I have to back up and question anything coming out of our government that looks to be "good for the people".

badshot I for one have never followed the food pyramid and I doubt seriously if 98% of the population does!
The problems today with over weight folks is multifaceted, huge numbers of jobs today involve sitting on ones butt all day long, I do it! You add to sitting on your butt all day the conveniance of fast food and yummy healthy TV dinners folks make because they both work and do not feel like standing up to cook, topped of with ready made store bought fat pills aka deserts and TaDa!!! You are a lard butt!!!
What people need to do is get off their lard bottoms and do something since they sit on thier duff all day at work! The food pyramid is a joke unless one gets off their duff!

I've never followed the food pyramid ,
in fact I don't see how anybody could . I agree with Taz , we're getting fatter because of the processed food and general lack of physical activity . I know that's the root causes in my case . Well , that and I'm a lazy beer drinking SOB ...

You know the food pyramid is a secret govenment plot to subliminally affect our psyches. They keep our minds deprived of proper nutrition to make the mind control rays more effective ... oh, I'm so thankful for tin foil.
Besides that, just think about the bottom of the pyramid-- grains! That's right -- more grains mean more fields. It's not a coincidence that the phenomena of crop circles continues to increase as we eat more grains. Oh I have so many thoughts on this, and substantial and circumstantial evidence. If the intenet weren't so heavily monitored by the dark agents, I would go on...
