Ha.  No, I haven't noticed their weight, but I probably will now.  I only
know that I have never met a dietician with whom I agreed.  In my opinion,
they and their crazy food pyramid have done a great deal of harm - at least
in the U.S.

Have people in other countries been exposed/subjected to similar food
pyramids?  Are schools, prisons, state run nursing homes, etc. forced to
abide by a pyramid diet anywhere else?
