MyPlate
The USDA is now using this simplified graphic (left side) to represent what they think we should be eating. The one on the right is what I feel like I should actually be eating, and what more accurately represents what we eat at home. I also noticed that this is a smaller size plate than I would typically think of as a dinner plate - which is great! But maybe they should point that out. Less food, and more veggies! :-)
