So pie charts are the newest trend for dietary guides? I won't miss the bullshit of the food pyramid but kinda surprised that it's gone

Edit: I wasn’t expecting pyramid fans out there lol really don’t understand the downvotes

Yeah, the new Canada's Food Guide is actually really good. (The one below is modeled after it, but changed to vegan foods).

Like, it seems like a reasonable, evidence-based, practical guide to healthy eating habits. (Unlike every single previous version going back to the 50s that might as well have been propaganda from the Canadian Wheat Board.) The latest revision is from 2019, iirc, and it's the first time I've felt comfortable using it as the basis of classroom instruction.
