Food Pyramid

Every night after dinner,  I get the same question.  What's for dessert?  I don't know when  dessert became a "given" in our house instead of a "treat".  It SHOULD be a rare treat.  This expectation that it's just as scheduled as breakfast is starting to bug me.

Mom: "Boys, you KNOW that desserts aren't good for you.  You do not need a sweets every single day."
Quinn: "Mom, sweets are the most important part of the diet.  That's why they're on the TOP of the food pyramid!!"

Yeah, whose bright idea was THAT to redo the food pyramid with sweets at the place of honor???
