The U.S. has unveiled a new healthy eating icon called MyPlate, to replace the older and more controversial food pyramid. The MyPlate icon reminds Americans to make sure that half of their plate is filled with fruit and vegetables, while a quarter of the plate is filled with grains, including whole grains. The new image also puts focus on choosing lean protein, healthy fats, and lower-sodium foods.
