I hate this pyramid. It is all wrong. Meat and Poultry should be combined with Dairy in its own group, at 1-2 servings at the top. Fish, Beans, Eggs, and Nuts should still be a group at 2-4 servings, next to fruit group. Vegetables should be 4-8 servings next to Bread/Grains group also at 4-8 servings. Fat/oils/sweets shouldn't even be part of the pyramid.

I disagree. Breads and grains shouldn't even be on the pyramid. If one simply cut off the bottom tier and changed fats, oils, and sweets to just butter it would be almost perfect.

The FDA revised the pyramid, after realizing that most people didn't exercise either.

There are some interesting theories on pyramids, one in which where somehow they were used to collect energy, and certain conductive rocks were used as conductors to bring power to the city. Of course, it's all just a theory and probably false, but interesting nonetheless.

What do pyramids have to do with power grids?

Hello!?! gold cap, granite slabs, piezoelectricity. the pyramids were obviously electro-acoustic resonators capable of amplifying and storing massive amounts of energy, which would be channeled to other pyramids through strategically placed phonon waveguides. How did you think the ships that built the pyramids were refueled?
