The typical American diet is 10% plant-based calories and 90% calories from meat and processed food. Bittman says those proportions should be exactly reversed for a healthy diet. Bittman further explains, it matters less about how the broccoli is grown and whether the beef came from McDonald's or a small farm, but that we eat the broccoli most of the time instead of the hamburger. Of course nothing is simple when you are dealing with our complex food system. If Americans even increased their fruit and vegetable calorie intake to 40 or 50%, there would not be enough food produced domestically to meet the demand. Originally published September, 2009.\n
