History of Food Guide
Canada's first food guide, the Official Food Rules, was introduced to
the public in July 1942. This guide acknowledged wartime food rationing,
while endeavoring to prevent nutritional deficiencies and to improve the
health of Canadians. Since 1942, the food guide has been transformed many
times - it has adopted new names, new looks, and new messages, yet has
never wavered from its original purpose of guiding food selection and
promoting the nutritional health of Canadians.
