The color scheme divides all foods into orange, yellow, and green categories based on calorie density:
Green foods have the lowest calorie density and/or the highest concentration of beneficial nutrients. Green foods (such as vegetables or whole grains) should make up the majority of your diet.
Yellow foods (such as lean meats and grains) contain more calories and/or fewer good nutrients per serving than green foods, and should be consumed in moderation.
Orange foods (such as red meat and desserts) are the most calorie-dense and/or contain the fewest healthful components, thus they should be consumed in moderation.
