Finland: The Food Plate Model
The Finnish have taken the idea of a food plate model to a more fundamental level than the Brits and Americans: They just go with a photo of a healthy meal. The model uses a few exemplars rather than whole categories—don’t worry, no one’s saying you have to eat boiled potatoes or green beans every day—but looking at a real, nutritious meal carries a clear message: If your plate looks like this plate, you’re good to go.
