The USDA Food Pyramid was a visual guide created by the United States Department of Agriculture to illustrate a balanced diet and promote healthy eating habits. Introduced in 1992, it categorized foods into different groups, with grains at the base, followed by fruits and vegetables, and smaller proportions for proteins and fats at the top. The pyramid aimed to encourage the consumption of a variety of foods while emphasizing portion sizes. It was replaced in 2011 by MyPlate, which offers a more modern representation of dietary guidelines.
