The New Food Guide Pyramid, Meat and Beans

This is the best book of this series on the food guide pyramid. The cover image is of a juicy hamburger with lettuce, tomato onion and a swirl of ketchup. The early reader book provides very basic information about the value of meat and beans to proper nutrition. It contains the revised food guide pyramid and the text describes the place for all kinds of meats and beans in the pyramid. The simple, yet direct and accurate information is complemented by the excellent photographs. The text and photos represent all meats: steak, a pork chop, a chicken breast, eggs, trout, and salmon, and describes the nutrients each adds to one's diet. The book ends with a glossary. We recommend the whole series.
