How do you classify types of food?

Answer by  malone (4817)

How you classify food depends on your intent. Food can be classified per the Food Pyramid (whole grains/carbs/protein/dairy) or by ethnicity (French/Moroccan/Asian/Nouveau) or by type (comfort food, spa cuisine, fast food, one-dish, vegetarian, etc). Determine the purpose for your classification system and the categories should become clear.

I classify food based on the food pyramid. Depending on each slot in the food pyramid, any food can be classified easily. For example, eggs are considered to be meat on the food pyramid.
