And from off-the-record conversations, it seems that they just didn't want to have that kind of controversy.

And they were afraid that if they changed the limit on saturated fat, that would be the big story coming out of the guidelines.

But instead of us talking about whole foods or us talking about increasing the amount of protein we should eat, everybody would be talking about the change in saturated fats.

So they decided to just leave it, recommend what they wanted to recommend, and now we're in a bit of a muddle.

So, you know, say kiss your favorite pasta goodbye.

When you're here.

When you're here.

Before, in the Obama administration, we didn't have a pyramid.

We had something called MyPlate, and it looked like a plate, and it showed you how much of your plate was supposed to be fruits and vegetables, meat, and grains.

In that iteration, half were supposed to be whole grains.

Now it's just whole grains, no refined carbohydrates, and even fewer of them than before.

So that's the first thing.

The second thing is sugar.

I mean, I don't think anybody disagrees that we all eat too much sugar.

But they have cut back the limit of sugar that people should be eating.

And make no mistake, none of us were meeting that when it was higher.

And in addition, they have said that children under 10 should have no added sugars at all.

So no Halloween, no birthday parties, no Christmas cookies, nothing.

No chance.

I mean, I'd love to see how that's going to go.
