Video preview clip

Fruit segment

MyPyramid: Eating Better Makes Sense is a day-in-the-life approach to understanding the USDA's new MyPyramid. The educational video features Maria, a working mom on a tight budget. Maria shows you how she and her family follow the MyPyramid plan as part of a healthy lifestyle. She demonstrates healthy food choices she makes at the grocery store and gives meal examples from her kitchen. Maria also highlights food safety tips in the store and at home. A new emphasis of MyPyramid is physical activity, and Maria shows you how you can work physical activity into the family's busy schedule.
