The ancient pharaohs weren’t too bright they say
But they made one contribution that I live by to this day
It’s called the Food Pyramid, and it’s approved by the USDA

Whole grains are the foundation, so please take my advice
Have five to eleven servings of bread, cereal or rice
Three to five of vegetables, and four fruits is best
Their antioxidants and fibre help you to digest
Three servings of yoghurt, milk and cheese
It’ll help your bones and subsidise the cattle industry
A body needs to grow, and growing takes proteins
It’s why meat can be a tasty treat, like fish or human beings
When you eat your sweets, make sure you try
To limit your servings, or you’ll DIE!

Everybody!

My body’s a pyramid that’s made of healthy food
So do what we say, eat right everyday
I love you
