USDA explains how we should eat

Thanks USDA! If not for the brand new website about the food pyramid:
http://www.mypyramid.gov/ , i would not know things like:
"look for the word 'whole' before the grain name on the list of ingredients"

I joke, of course. People, come on, who could possibly think this is a good use of taxpayer money? Not me. I do not believe it is the job of the federal government to explain to me that (based on my personal profile...using the 'My Pyramid Plan' link) I need to eat 7 ounces of meat and beans per day!

I was alerted to this by a google news headline that led me to this article by AnneMarie Knepper of the Oregon Daily Emerald:
