#MYPLATE
Good morning, Bluesky people.

I found out the food pyramid I grew up being indoctrinated with was bullshit controlled by corporate lobbyists. Even the current USDA "MyPlate" isn't accurate.

To fight the man, I created a GPT for healthy meal planning in the US.

Many health influencers blame the ‘90s-era food pyramid for Americans' poor health, even though it was replaced by MyPlate in 2011. What is the history of that triangle, and what actually makes up a “healthy” diet?
How influential was the food pyramid of the 90s?

Rage Against the MyPlate!

"FUCK YOU, I WON'T EAT WHAT YOU TELL ME!" As I viciously devour the WORST burger known to culinary art.

Health and Human Services Secretary Robert Kennedy Jr. says new federal dietary guidelines will be released next month. Since 2011, the Department of Agriculture has touted the MyPlate guidelines.

Bruh my health teacher pulled up the myplate thing and this fucking thing popped up what the hell is even going on anymore

I wrote to the USDA regarding their violation of the Hatch Act on their Rural Development home loans site. (All the usual radical Dems nonsense and ugly stuff)

This is their reply. Apparently, there is no proper way to report such a problem 😾

Our Club members are learning what it takes to build a balanced meal! Through our Healthy Habits program, they explored the USDA’s MyPlate model to better understand how different foods all fit together for good nutrition. #HealthyHabits #GreatFuturesStartHere

👎 Outdated Fact #1: “The Food Pyramid is the model for healthy eating.”

👍 It reflected the interests of the food industry rather than scientific accuracy, overgeneralizing the impact of eating different types of fats and meats. In 2011, @usdagov.bsky.social replaced it with MyPlate.

Because MyPlate was Michelle Obama, which pretty much explains everything.

This is a bad pyramid by any account.

These are better for guidance anyway - addresses pretty much all the comorbidities.

First off, your boss is telling people to replace heart-healthy oils with beef tallow, so spare us the hyperbole.

And why is MAHA so obsessed with the food pyramid when it was replaced by MyPlate in 2011?

Fruits and vegetables are essential for all age groups. Eat a variety of fruits and vegetables all year round for the needed vitamins & minerals they provide. Learn what is in season: myplate.gov/myplate-seas...

More: Kennedy regularly seems to confuse the DGAC report (>400pgs), and the actual DGAs .
The act of developing food guides (e.g. the Food Pyramid ... MyPlate being the most recent edition) is a major effort of the USDA to communicate the DGAs to the public in a digestible manner,

As seen on the USDA MyPlate nutritional information site. These lying fascist Republicans have got to be removed from office.

or wait was it that the food pyramid got replaced by “myplate” with the glass of milk

I grew up with MyPlate. Wtf is the food pyramid?

对,其实现在大多数国家的营养指南,包括美国的MyPlate,都已经把饮食这件事做的很好理解和执行了:内容上不要挑食,尽量颜色和种类丰富,比例上蛋白不要少于1g/kg体重,脂肪不要超过30%不要低于15%, 选择上避免过度加工,热量上能维持体重,餐数上根据生活需求自己调节,不要一餐暴食,足矣。

I’m Premedical Health Sciences class of 2028. I needed an elective and nutrition seemed interesting. I wonder if MyPlate is still widely taught/used? Healthy eating= balance. My favorite food has to be anything with noodles and a broth. @beh353.bsky.social #beh353

RFK the LESSER keeps using old ideas to guide current health policy.

He's a danger to us all.

“MyPlate, not the Food Pyramid, has been the visual graphic for the US Dietary Guidelines since 2011,” said Bellows. “So, referring to the ‘top of the pyramid’ is a dated reference.”
