What about proteins?

There's nothing inherently wrong with a plate that contains protein, starch and vegetables -- it's just protein-based foods usually occupy too large a place while the vegetables and starches skulk in the corners.  Our country has long had a love affair with protein, ever since protein became known as the builder of muscle and strength, and with that image came the belief that the more protein we ate, the better.

If fact, our protein needs are quite small.  Only a few ounces a day of protein-rich food are required, and legumes, grains and vegetables can supply all of it.
