We have been accustomed to a colourful rainbow, each colour representing a main food group. Although the foods from the former 4 food groups are, for the most part, still present in the new food guide, Health Canada chose to do away with the traditional food groups classified primarily by nutrient, and move towards a focus on healthy eating patterns to promote a balanced diet. This new focus is represented by a balanced plate emphasizing a variety of healthy foods, and proportions rather than portions. Children should be eating similar proportions as adults, but on smaller plates adapted to their appetite.
