This is the USDA's new food icon, called MyPlate. I love it, I think this is a great idea. It's much easier to understand than the food pyramid. Half of your plate should be fruits and vegetables. Also, half of your grains should be whole grains. I also noticed when looking through the website that most of the tips for protein did not include meat, besides fish. I got all this information, and the links above from the USDA's website, www.ChooseMyPlate.gov
