Michelle Obama provided very similar guidance in around 2011 and every conservatively collectively lost their shit over it.

The food pyramid wasn't really used in recent years by the US government, and changed to "MyPlate" in 2011, and if you actually read its guidelines nothing on there is terribly offensive.

Really? The only conservatives complaining that I recall were from changes to school lunches that resulted in a lot of food waste. It's been over 16 years so I'm more than willing to admit that was really the only part of the whole debacle that I remember.

I remember people calling it a "Nanny State".

> Because nobody else changed the food pyramid to be somewhat not-garbage until him.

The food pyramid hasn't been a thing for more than a decade. He did bring it back.

> Who else would you congratulate for this specific action?

The people who pushed for stuff like this more than a decade ago, but conservatives opposed it because it was done by a black lady.

It's a pretty straight-forward question - you can just say "Michelle Obama" or whoever you're referring to instead. I never understand the desire to actively present yourself as someone throwing a tantrum.

If that's not who you're referring to, please correct me.

You made a claim about how RFK Jr. was the only person to fix the food pyramid.

It is unlikely that if you are old enough to vote that you do not remember that Michelle Obama tried to make a more healthy food criteria, and as such it’s very easy to assume that you are acting in bad faith when you say something about RFK Jr that is objectively not true.

It’s a pretty bad assumption. You should pay a lot more attention to Hanlon’s Razor.

I don’t know much at all about Michelle’s actions. Similarly, I don’t know much about Melania’s actions. You say she tried to - so… she didn’t do it? If not, I don’t see how this makes my comment “objectively untrue”?

We haven't had a food pyramid for like twenty years. Yes, other people have "changed the food pyramid to be somewhat not-garbage" before RFK.

I post this elsewhere but:

I have not seen the pyramid with bread, cereal, rice and pasta at the base pushed for at least ~20 years. Maybe it was 25-30 years ago when I saw it pushed seriously in school and even then I did not see people taking it seriously outside of those lessons, as in people actively calling it questionable.

Where in the world was this old pyramid still being pushed?
