"The USDA is inviting companies in the food and consumer electronic industries to Partner with MyPyramid -- to step up and help families make nutritious food choices."USDA has no concept of "nutritious food choices," re: overweight/obesity.
It is a governmental "trade organization" intended to help industry, not citizenry.
The Mission and Vision Statements of the USDA are:
USDA Mission: Enhance the quality of life for the American people by supporting production of agriculture:
ensuring a safe, affordable, nutritious, and accessible food supply,
caring for agricultural, forest, and range lands,
supporting sound development of rural communities,
providing economic opportunities for farm and rural residents,
expanding global markets for agricultural and forest products and services and
working to reduce hunger in America and throughout the world.
USDA Vision: A healthy and productive Nation in harmony with the land.
Beware.
