Other Food Pyramids?

[SusanL]

I am stymied, I only know of the USDA food pyramid. CA, Latin, and Mediterranean pyramids? Where can I go to research these that I have read on foodgirl's thread? TIA!

Susan, I love bothe the Latin and Mediterranean pyramids!

Here is a link to the Latin one http://www.findhealthonline.com/pyrlatin.htm

Mediterranean (with a link to Asian on the page) http://www.beaconhillbesthealth.com/nutrition/pyramid_2.html

This will also link you to vegetarian, kids (new one for me) plus the ones we already discussed http://health.excite.com/food_pyramidmediterr

Here is the CA one....I hadnt heard of it, but leave it to CA.....http://www.kaiserpermanente.org/locations/california/mod03/foodpyramid/foodpyramid.html


Hope this helps. I find them more interesting than the traditional one!

Kwormann, thank you so much, I never realized that there was more than one! I agree that they are more interesting than the original one. Need to start rethinking my meal planning. Cool sites!! Hope that others check them.
