Introduction to MyPlate

Choose MyPlate

MyPlate is an icon created by the USDA to replace the old food pyramid. The plate icon is is a simple, visual, research-based icon based that fits with the 2010 dietary guidelines. It shows the proportions of food that should be on your plate at almost every meal.

"What's more simple than a plate?" Askes Michelle Obama at the unveiling of MyPlate. "As a mom, I can tell you how much this is going to help parents across the country."

All dietary recommendations come from MyPlate.gov.
