Oil, dairy (milk), meat, veggtables, fruits, and grains are the 6 food groups.
Food guide pyramid was created in 1974.
The food pyramid is a visual guide that shows the different food groups and the recommended servings for each group. It helps individuals understand the types and amounts of food they should eat for a balanced diet. By following the food pyramid, people can make healthier choices by including a variety of foods from different groups to meet their nutritional needs.

Wine does not belong in any food group. The food pyramid from which many people learn about food groups is not only antiquated but is aimed at children therefore contains no alcoholic beverages.
The purpose of a food pyramid is to provide a visual representation of how different food groups contribute to a balanced diet. It helps individuals understand the recommended proportions of different food groups for optimal health and nutrition.
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

A key change in the MyPlate servings guide compared to the old Food Guide Pyramid is the emphasis on a visual representation of food proportions rather than a hierarchical structure. MyPlate uses a plate graphic to show the recommended distribution of food groups—fruits, vegetables, grains, and proteins—encouraging a balanced diet. This shift promotes a more straightforward understanding of portion sizes and the importance of including a variety of food groups in meals.
