The best use of the food pyramid would be
a. to determine a healthy eating pattern that represents a balanced diet
b. to determine the food that should never be eaten
c. to create a diet that excludes fat
d. to count calories and carbohydrates select the best answer from the choices provided.

Would be A. To help determine a healthy eating pattern that represents a balanced diet.

The food or nutritional pyramid is a graph that explains in a simple way which are the foods that make up the diet necessary for a healthy life, in addition to the amount in which they should be consumed. It is composed of 6 food groups:
- Cereals and derivatives.
- Fresh vegetables and legumes.
- Fresh fruits.
- Oils and fats.
- Dairy products.
- Meats, fish and dried vegetables.

The food pyramid is usually adapted to the foods of different cultures.

I hope this information can help you.

I would say A because the food pyramid was designed to give some guidelines for a healthy diet or daily portion.
