The food pyramid for sure. I’m not sure if it was taught outside the US

This one is ongoing. It gets modified a bit whenever some industry or another pays enough, but it's still misleading kids and educators to this day.

I went into a deep dive on the matter. Many countries have food pyramids, but they look potentially very different. For a laugh, look up the Italian one, with pizza and pasta at the base! I nowadays refer to the Harvard food pyramid, seems fairly legit to me.

The Harvard one looks better but I think I’ll be using the Italian one from now on 😂
