Thought I'd pass this along:
Next Time Government Gives You Dietary Advice, Consider Doing the Opposite
I've been on this for years; the government is so far behind in their recommendations for nutrition that most of what they put out today is based on 40+ year old science, much of it completely dismissed by modern studies (canola oil is healthy, anyone?). This is part of the reason the country is in horrid shape in general; you have a populace following these guidelines, and food being produced to fit them. Only the guidelines lead directly to obesity, cancer, heart disease, and more.
