> Cheese: more than one serving a week
A serving of cheese is one ounce, which is roughly the size of your thumb, or about two small cubes of cheese resembling dice. I can't imagine being limited to this amount of cheese per week. That's a paltry eight cubes of cheese per month!

Sceptical of grains and wine recommendation and sceptical that red meat is discouraged.
Wine/meat results seem likely to be confounder related. Wealthy and educated people self-selecting into red wine because they read somewhere it's ok, and fast-food eaters having lots of beef. Grains seem like an old food pyramid propaganda thing, although I'm open to having my mind changed on that if someone has a study I can read on it.

The only answer is to find the biggest glass
The MIND diet recommends:[9]
Whole grains: three or more servings a day
Other vegetables: at least one a day
Wine: one glass a day
Green leafy vegetables (like spinach and salad greens): at least six servings a week
Nuts: five servings a week
Beans: at least three servings a week
Berries: two or more servings a week
Poultry (like chicken or turkey): two times a week
Fish: once a week
Olive oil: use it as your main cooking oil.
The diet discourages:[10]
Butter and stick margarine: more than a tablespoon daily
Pastries and sweets: more than five servings a week
Red meat: more than four servings a week
Cheese: more than one serving a week
Fried or fast food: more than one serving a week
The M is for Mediterranean, if you couldn't tell. I wouldn't mind a glass of red wine. But I'd like to have cheese with it. Via https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/MIND_diet
