Wording and References

The wording is slightly bias in favor of the healthy food pyramid over the USDA Healthy Eating Plate in the last two sentences of the second paragraph. The word superior should be deleted from the second sentence of the first paragraph because it is persuasive. There should also be information about the limitations of the Healthy Eating Pyramid. Inline citations need to added to each line. ^[1] Abendixen (talk) 01:30, 1 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

References

^ The healthy eating pyramid is a nutrition guide developed by the Harvard School of Public Health, suggesting quantities of each food category that a human should eat each day

Add

Add a picture of what the chart looks like. Pointless to have an article about a visual chart without having the chart. 64.236.245.243 21:16, 16 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Note, photo of the chart was added previously. Geoff ^T ^C 19:49, 13 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Reference for larger portions

I thought maybe the references: ^[1]^[2] Are the correct ones. I just found them on the MyPyramid WP page, and since they were sources for a similar statement, they might work here too. Zibem (talk) 07:36, 13 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I would like to rename this article to "Healthy eating chart" and to include the healthy eating pie as well as other related charts. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Tauiris (talk • contribs) 06:00, 19 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This seems to be a pretty handy source of information btw: http://www.hsph.harvard.edu/nutritionsource/what-should-you-eat/pyramid-full-story/index.html
