Most Americans get plenty of protein without trying. It's hard to see how eating more meat should help unless you think the amount of protein actually needed is much more than what the May Clinic thinks: https://www.mayoclinichealthsystem.org/hometown-health/speak...

The "without trying" people probably aren't going to make much use of a food pyramid anyway. The guidelines are more aimed at people who will try.
