| B | The food pyramid conceived of in the 1980s by the Department of Agriculture conveyed the message that people should avoid fatty foods and should eat more carbohydrates such as bread, cereal, rice and pasta. Therefore, carbohydrates formed the base of the food pyramid with six to 11 servings a day being ideal. The next most important food group was fruit and vegetables, with the former requiring three to five servings a day and the latter two to four servings. After fruits and vegetables, they recommended that people each just two to three servings of both dairy and meats and fish a day. The smallest portion of the pyramid, the top, goes to fats, oils and sweets, which should be eaten sparingly.
