Organizing Compositions and Their Supporting Points: The following paragraph describes the U.S. Department of Agriculture's 1992 Food Pyramid.

From 1992 to 2011, the U.S. Department of Agriculture used a food guide in the shape of a pyramid divided into four horizontal layers. The bottom layer, representing the bread, cereals, rice, and pasta group, was the largest, allows for nine to eleven servings per day. Building on that were the fruit and vegetable groups, with two to five servings of each per day. On top of these sat the dairy (milk, yogurt, cheese) and protein (meat, poultry, fish, dry beans, eggs, and nuts) groups, which allowed only two to three servings from each per day. Finally, fats and oils came on top because they were to be used sparingly. The shape worked well to demonstrate the ideal amounts of various foods in the American diet.
