Question

roughout the years, a variety of dietary tools have been published including the Basic Seven, Basic Four, the Food Wheel, the Food Guide Pyramid, the MyPyramid Guide, and finally the newest tool: MyPlate. MyPlate illustrates the five food groups that are the building blocks for a healthy diet using a familiar image — a place setting for a meal. Before you eat, think about what goes on your plate or in your cup.

Discuss the following in your initial post:

1. What information did you gain after watching the animation about this tool?
2. Think about one of your favorite meals and respond:
   1. How does your favorite meal compare to the MyPlate recommendations?
   2. What food groups do the key ingredients of your meal fall into?
   3. What other foods could you add to your meal to meet MyPlate? Why?
   4. How does your favorite meal fit into your food intake for the whole day?
