WASHINGTON (Worthy Satire) – Americans across the nation are reporting symptoms of dizziness, disbelief, and sudden awareness after Robert F. Kennedy Jr. unveiled a redesigned federal food pyramid that shockingly omits McDonald’s, soda, and “whatever was left in the drive-thru bag.”
The updated pyramid, released as part of Kennedy’s “Make America Chew Again” initiative, emphasizes whole foods, clean ingredients, and the controversial idea that meals should come from kitchens rather than paper sacks stapled shut.
“I’m just confused,” said an Ohio man staring at the chart in silence. “If McDonald’s isn’t a food group, then what exactly have I been eating since 1998?”
According to officials, the new pyramid places vegetables, lean proteins, and unprocessed grains at the base, while relegating fast food to what Kennedy described as “an occasional regret, not a lifestyle.”
Nutritionists praised the overhaul, noting that the previous unofficial pyramid most Americans followed consisted of:
• Breakfast burritos at the bottom
• Cheeseburgers in the middle
• A ceremonial diet soda at the top
Social media erupted within minutes, with users demanding clarification on where fries now belong. One viral post asked whether ketchup could still count as a vegetable “emotionally, if not nutritionally.”
White House aides confirmed the omission was intentional. “The Secretary felt it was time to stop pretending the drive-thru was part of the harvest,” one official said.
Fast-food executives, meanwhile, expressed concern. A joint statement warned that removing burgers from the pyramid could “destabilize the delicate balance between Americans and their cup holders.”
Kennedy defended the change, insisting the pyramid was never meant to reflect “what people already eat,” but rather “what they might eat if they believed their bodies would be around in 30 years.”
At press time, Americans were reportedly studying the new chart carefully—while asking if nuggets could still qualify as poultry “in spirit.”
