The New Food Pyramid

The USDA has a website offering customized food pyramids based on age, gender and size. In addition, they have an in depth look at each of the food groups, including ideal members of each group. For example, they break down how beans are good for protein and are also suited to be counted as vegetable servings.

In addition, they have a pyramid-riffic game where players choose food items and activities in order to build an ideal daily menu in order to launch a cartoon rocket.
