Now, this is rumor from where I can't remember, so don't take this AT ALL as truth (although it makes sense)...

The change is BASICALLY going to be:

fruits/veggies on the bottom and then grains next up. Effectively switching the two layers.

Something somehow may be added to distinguish between good grains and bad sugars - not sure. Also, something may be added to weigh veggies more than fruit.

So it's a start, but it still ain't even close!

What do you guys think of MY pyramid:

sugar
grains|fruits|starch
b e r r i e s
v e g g i e s
p r o t e i n
g o o d f a t s

Looks yummy to me!
