A small note on the Swedish food pyramid used in this video (the double pyramid version, not the one from 1974). I'm Swedish and I got curious when it was brought up since I had never seen that version before. When I went to school I was taught something called "Kostcirkeln" (basically "the diet circle") which is a lot more balanced than the 1974 food pyramid, and I was surprised that it didn't get a mention in this video for that reason. Anyway, so I was able to track down the image used in the video and read the article where it came from, and quickly found out that 1) the image was created by a local grocery line here and isn't actually created by any kind of nutritional authority and 2) It isn't actually meant to be used as a dietary aid. Rather, the pyramid is a visualization of the average modern diet and meant to be directly compared with the 1974 pyramid. The reason why there are "two" triangles is because the top one (labeled "empty calories) doesn't have an equivalent in the 1974 pyramid since it consists mainly of nutritionless junk food. I also think it's probably to show that the average Swedish person eats more junk food than meat + dairy combined, since they take up a smaller portion of the pyramid. The data is based on information from the Swedish institute of agriculture (jordbruksverket) and is part of a 2016 advertisement campain by the COOP grocery chain. They basically want to inform the public about the poor general diet, as well as assure their customers that the grocery chain has plenty of nutritious products that they can use to better their diet :) I wouldn't call this "two pyramids pyramid" a food pyramid at all for this reason, since it isn't meant as a diet aid, rather a grim portrayal of the Swedish populations *actual* poor diet I thought it was interesting since this episode is partially about the impact advertisements can have in spreading food misinformation and deceiving the public. If you actually would like to learn about the kind of diet recommendations that Swedish people are given today, I recommend looking into kostcirkeln. Even if you don't speak the language, most of the images are illustrated. I wouldn't say kostcirkeln is perfect- but at least it isn't like 40% soda and donuts lol.

Here in Portugal we grew up with a food circle called “Roda dos Alimentos”. It featured 8 groups. In slices proportional to their serving sizes there were: vegetables, fruits, oil and butter (fats), dairy, proteins (meat, fish and eggs), peas and beans, carbs (potatoes, pasta and bread). What about the eighth? It was water! And it was right in the centre of the circle.

I always thought it was those mission trips, that interfered with developing nations by culture shock and forcing schools, that ultimately caused people to live in starving nations. Before the children were taught how to hunt and gather, then after the kids were distracted by shiny stuff and no one learned how to even get food. Interference in development, "sending aid" cost external resources and can only last so long, ultimately degrading a people. Small exchanges and learning how a people live and sharing knowledge and wisdoms with what's on hand, what is useful and non invasive; this will build up all parties involved. If there are starving kids anywhere in the world, it's likely because someone was trying to force their values, and then left right after a turning point.

here's my own take of the food pyramid/triangle situation when i was younger i was taught to have somewhere between 5-8 cups of water a day, and when i took around 3 cups, I felt it was too much. same with food; dont have so many calories, eat more protein, eat more of this food. I was living a long-lasting nightmare, but now that i am older and much smarter (but still very stupid), I know how to live life with your own standards. drink as much water as you want but still drink water, if you have a problem with nutrients and minerals such as less sodium, iron, vitamin A, or an increase in those things, fit your diet to naturally curve to your needs. less sodium? more salty foods. more iron? less high iron foods. Its now what i know and you need to know, so if you're young drink like 2-3 not 5-8. and fruit is one thing you should be counting on for nutrients that taste good to you. veggies can even be made tasty on some cirumstances too.

Part of the problem is that teachers can get into pretty serious trouble for questioning the school curriculum ... & that includes acknowledging smart students who point out logical fallacies & other flaws in the class material. This is why school board meetings have become even more of a battleground than ever before: the political extremists of the right wing R waging what they believe is a holy war. That war is a struggle for the future mind of America. The political right wing is fighting that war w/ everything they've got, which includes showing up to school board meetings & angrily shouting down anyone who dares to disagree w/ their bigoted, narrowminded point of view. By swaying & taking over school boards, they can literally dictate what can & cannot B spoken of in the classroom ...like the fact that certain people will literally suffer (such as the lactose intolerant) or risk death (those w/ Celiac Disease) if they try to eat what the Health Class teachers tell them to, or that vegetarianism is a viable alternative to the Four Food Groups / Food Pyramid / (insert USDA-produced pack of lies here) system that is suspiciously heavy on animal products & grain products.

I grew up with that, it was used from 1956 to 1992 I believe. But I feel like people liked it a lot better (hence, why they kept it for almost 40 years). The main problem was that they didn't tell you how much of everything to eat, but they probably just figured people were smart enough to tailor it to their needs.
