In 1991, the USDA halted publication of its Eating Right Pyramid after meat and dairy lobby objections. When released a year later, the graphic was altered to appease industry. Federal dietary advice evolved from 'decrease consumption of meat' (1977) to 'have two or three daily servings' under industry pressure. Dairy wasn't originally on the pyramid until lobbyists intervened. In 2015, 255 clients lobbied the USDA on dietary guidelines including Coca-Cola ($8.67M), dairy ($7.12M), and meat ($4.58M).
