The food pyramid is always changing, as the USDA is always making updates to it. The best way to keep track of the changes as well as staying on top of what to eat is by going to; mypyramid.gov. It provides you with the food guide, and a bunch of other useful information.

The actual food pyramid was last updated in 2005. However, in 2011 it was completely replaced by the "My Plate" nutrition guide put forth by the USDA.
The first food guide pyramid was made by Anna-Britt Agnsäter for Sweden's National Board of Health and Welfare in 1972. The USDA pyramid was based off of the original pyramid and was introduced in 1992.
Most proteins are at the top of the food pyramid because animals are protein. You can also get protein from eggs.
