So, what I get out of it is the same thing I have been whining about for a long time. Maybe the government is actually onto something.

They talk about it saying the diet increases fruits and vegetables and calls meat protein now. The reality is grains has gone from a staple of the diet to a small portion, about 20%. Not going to get on a soap box about it but other than keeping the masses alive with calories, grains are still bad for you IMHO. Especially wheat. http://www.marksdailyapple.com/why-grains-are-unhealthy/

Just something to think about...

This is just as laughable as the previous one...which if you followed it you would would be fat as a friggen cow.

Just looking at the chart (which does not separate out fats) you should be eating 75% carbs.

Good luck with that.
