My Plate

Did you know the USDA's Food Pyramid was now a Plate?  How much more appropriate!  Actually, it's My Plate.  I learned about it from the  Tough and Bluff blog of which I wrote yesterday.  

According to the web site, "MyPlate is the "new generation" food icon to prompt consumers to think differntly about their food choices.  ChooseMyPlate.gov  contains a wealth of resources based on the 2010 Dietary Guidelines for Americans to help individuals meet nutrient and calorie needs and make positive eating choices."
