FYI: Do you remember the U.S. Department of Agriculture's food pyramid? Designed to help us all set healthy dietary priorities, the pyramid, debuting in 1992, urged us to indulge sparingly in fats. Meanwhile, bring on the carbs: Pasta, rice, bread, and cereal made up the bottom of the pyramid graphic, with a recommended six to 11 servings per day.
Oopsie. Dietary scientists eventually determined that eating a lot of refined carbs isn't that good for us after all, so the original pyramid was replaced with another, more confusing-looking pyramid in 2005. The revised pyramid showed fruits and vegetables on a near-equal scale alongside grains.
