The History of the Food Pyramid

The first offical Food Guide Pyramid was created by the United States Department of Agriculture in 1992. Since then it has been updated, expanded, and adapted to fit the needs of both average American eaters and smaller groups like vegitarians and children. The pyramids serve as a loose guideline to eating healthily, and have encouraged a greater awareness of nuitrition and healthy food habits among the public.
