/ck/ - Food & Cooking

Yes it includes meat and meat is unhealthy

ehh its a balanced diet sure but there is plenty of evidence of extremely healthy and fit people living off nothing but sweet potatoes and coconuts and here we are at over 50% obesity rate with our stupid triangle

>>14642707
it also includes eating gr*ins which are actual poison so you know its industry bullshit to sell you flour and carnist products

>>14642685
yes

>>14642685
i guess for "nutrients" (whatever the fuck those are, am i right?) sure, but for actual calories/hunger/insulin absolutely not

>>14642685
It's not the best, but it's not horrible. It's a product of it's time. So many faggot read some reddit TIL about it once and think it's the devil.

>>14642685
>So the food pyramid is complete bullshit, right?
The stupid one revamped a few years ago with vertical lines was completely worthless. This one should give people a clue how many "food exchanges" of each of the food groups make sense, but it's up to you to figure out the portions, but at least the blocks give you a big idea that the most is the bottom group. If you follow the guidance from this, you should get adequate nutrition. Probably no rickets, goiters, bow legs, leg braces, constipation, in utero fucked up teeth or spina bifada, and other issues of the past from ignorance of the food groups and nutrition. There will still be people who eat only meat and starchy veggies and zero veggies on top of a burger.

The food pyramid was originally constructed by the Department of Agriculture, not the FDA. It is not accurate.

who the fuck has 3-5 servings of vegetables a day though, seriously

>>14642685
It's literally just the jew diet in pyramid form. Nobody needs that much grain.

>>14644541
Healthy people. A 'serving' is generally smaller than you would think anyway.

>>14644568
Vegetables are also extremely low in calories.

>>14642685
>Fruit has added sugars
?yllaer snaciremA oD

>>14642724
plant based and green pilled

>>14642685
You dont need the bottom row

>>14642685
Bottom row's just a bit too big, and it's very much dated to the peak of fat scaremongering hence why they're at the very top. It's not terrible, it just needs a few adjustments.

>>14642685
>6-11 serving of grains
Jesus Christ how horrifying

>>14642721
>plenty of evidence of extremely healthy and fit people living off nothing but sweet potatoes and coconuts
please post this """evidence"""

>>14644574
they probably include fruit "juice" in the fruit group

>>14642685
This was created in the days when people worked hard and needed to carb load.
Totally unsuited for today's, limp wristed, wine sipping, millennial cocksuckers with jobs in 'media'.

>>14644656
people, usually island people, who live off nothing but sweet potatoes and coconuts

it should have lucky charms at the top

>>14644712
i still have no fucking idea how amerimutts can process the carb equivalent of a thermonuclear bomb like lucky charms

>>14642685
>11 servings of bread a day
Do Americans really

>>14642685
Not enough Mayo

>>14642685
yes but so is whatever crap you want to replace it with

>>14644541
I have like 10 and barely think about it.

>>14642685
yep, it's missing dog

>>14644681
So you don't have any evidence?

The older I get the more it seems like we don't know much about how the world works.

>>14644681
>The beautiful Cook Islands are now the world's fattest country, with more than half the adults classified as obese. Photos: The Pacific islands are home to nine of the top 10 countries for obesity globally. Rates of obesity range from 35% to 50% in the region and one in five children are estimated to be obese.

lmfao

>>14642721
while that's true, I highly doubt that most americans follow the pyramid. we have such a high obesity rate because we live in a consumerist society that puts the most garbage food on the forefront

>>14642724
What do you sub grains with? A million veggies?

>>14646062

>What do you sub grains with?

Killing and eating animals

>>14646087
You've never killed an animal in your life.

>>14646087
Animals aren't carbs unless they are something like a buffalo.
I smell paleobullshit.

>>14644875
because our boomer parents started "feeding" us with it at 4

>>14646103
>implying you need them at all
ngmi...

Now, this is a food pyramid.

>>14646169
Fuk

>>14646103
>Animals aren't carbs unless they are something like a buffalo.
I have a hard time believing buffalo meat is so different from literally every animal I've ever eaten that it has a sizable amount of carbs in it.

It's a general guide meant to be given to little kids for the purposes of teaching them to eat their fruits and veggies and not too many sweets. It's not an in depth manual if that's what you mean.

Absolutely horrible diet to follow. That would create one skinnyfat, unhealthy individual

>>14642685
How am I supposed to eat at minimum ten meals a day what the fuck

>>14646179
>turkey/poultry
dark meat in these animals is high in PUFA and conventional chicken is pumped full of anti-biotics and other shit in freedomland
>fish
good
>nuts/seeds
indigestable by humans, leave them to the birds. if you want evidence, eat seeds and when you take a poop look at it, you'll find them there.
>greens/radishes
not needed but can help some people if they are cooked
>mayo
retard
>rice/eggs/beans
rice is a grain, grains are bad for us and rot our teeth. eggs can be good if they are not from the supermarket and instead are from a local farm, same as chicken. for beans look above in seeds
>fruit
good. some people have allergy to certain fruits so you have to search a bit to find ones that you don't react to
>bread/flour/pasta
garbage
>milk dairy cheese
can be the base of your diet if you tolerate it and you should definitely include them
>sugar
you know that all carbs are sugar, right?
>red meat out
why am I even taking this bait goddamnit?
