Meat = Ice Cream.... right?

Yeah, I was just about as confused as you are when this lady in my Nutrition class suggested the same thing.

 We're at the end of the semester and we're talking about how your diet influences your health, diseases, etc. My teacher brings up the Dash Diet (or way of eating.... I hate the word diet). I really recommend this way of eating as well.... the old school Food Pyramid is just out-dated. So this lady, who can I say, is not exactly the picture the health if you catch my drift, points to the meat section of the Pyramid and says very seriously "So can you just replace the meat with ice cream?" WHAT?!?!?!?!!! Apparently the idea that yogurt is suggested up there in the sweets area @ a ration of 5 a week was just not enough. I don't know though.... on a bad day I might also consider trading my meat for ice cream. How about you? :)
