If one is to examine the two, there is no real differences. The food pyramid was one of the first visual representations of "how to eat" and "what to eat". The Eatwell Plate was introduced by the UK Food Standards Agency, and is that of a more user friendly visualization, represented on a plate. One may see that the 6 essential food groups, Grains, Veg, Milk, Meat, Fruit and oils are in exact ration to that of the Food Pyramid.
old pyramid has more granis
My food stays on my plate.
The food pyramid is dead, its been replaced with the food plate.
the difference is that energy pyramids show life and food pyramids are just stacks of food
a vegan food pyramid cancels out meat, dairy, and eggs. this is so because vegans only eat nuts, fruit, vegetables, wheat, and soy.
The Food Guide Pyramid has been replaced with a Food plate, however, the original food pyramid can be seen here http://www.nalusda.gov/fnic/Fpyr/pmap.htm
they are both very different because the old doesin't state all of the foods and all the old foods and the new one does and the new one has lots of new and different foods to add and there a lot of new grains meat
maybe the differance is that one has more than the other
== == Of the trophic levels of the ecological pyramid, there are three ways to describe the flow of energy in food chains. Numbers, energy and biomass. See the related link for more information.
A portion is a small plate of food, where is a standard serving is a full meal
Both the old and the new pyramids state that you should eat the least amount of oils,fats,etc. and the most amounts of grain, rice, and pastas. They are both very accurate, except for the fact that the old pyramid doesn't state servings of each food you should have daily.
The Chinese pyramid is much the same to the western Pyramid but there are differences. For one the Chinese pyramid is missing Herbs, Minerals and Food Supplements, and there pyramid includes Industrial Chemicals and other "Mystery Proteins".We need to see both the western and Chinese food pyramids (diagrams) to make a comparison.*******************************or their is the more obvious answer, the Chinese one is full of Chinese food and the western on got western food on it....we need to see both the western and Chinese food pyramids (diagrams) to make a comparison
