The update makes a bit more sense (though they are still telling you to drink milk at every meal) but I miss my 11 servings of pasta per day..

Check the Canadian guide, they finally did it without asking for input from the various food lobbies...
Interesting!
Surprisingly similar to the US one, just without the Milk Lobby influence. "Make water your drink of choice" would improve so many people's lives.
Digging into the US guidelines it says that "93% of Americans are not getting enough dairy." #ThatIsALie
US dairy lobby is bonkers. Not as bonkers as the corn people, but close.
Yep, the dairy lobby is still pissed about it, it's been five years now and they still say that Health Canada is biased against them... After working with them to create the guide for decades? 🤔
this a png for ants? https://food-guide.canada.ca/artifacts/CFG-snapshot-EN.pdf
Milk is still pretty nutritious and a glass a day is probably very beneficial for most adults that can actually digest it.
I'm not arguing that, this is recommending a glass with every meal and giving it its own special food group requirements. The "93% are not getting enough dairy" figure is pretty absurd since in 2021 (the last time data was collected), Americans ate on average 667 pounds of dairy per year. That's 1.8 pounds per day. It's a weird measurement, since a pint of milk weighs about a pound, and a pound of cheese is 16 servings of cheese, but either way.. I think we're getting enough dairy.
