Supersize the Food Pyramid

Get your personalized food pyramid, but remember, "this calorie level is only an estimate of your survival needs. We actually expect the average American to eat about 50-100% more than whatever we suggest, to help create demand for the 1500 calories per person per day excess of food currently being produced by Agribusiness corporations in the United States. "

    or we send the extras as 'aide' to countries, undercutting farmers in that country, screwing with their prices and making them even more poor than they were in the first place (africa).
