The Food Guide Pyramid was designed as an easy way
to show the groups of foods that make up a good diet.
It also tells you that you need to eat a variety of foods
from all five groups and how much of the foods
from the different groups you should eat to stay healthy.
Its pyramid shape helps explain which foods
you should eat more or less of.
The foods that make up the pyramid's base (the widest part)
should provide the bulk (the biggest part) of your diet.
As you go up the pyramid,
the amounts of different foods you need get smaller.
