As an pyramid shape gets larger towards the bottom and smaller towards the top, the foods you should eat more of are desplayed at the bottom of the pyramid to convey the quantity of that food group you should eat. For example: The fatty foods are usually at the top of the pyramid as theres only a little space at the top and you should eat only a little amount of fatty foods.
