Healthier eating with MyPlate feature on microwaves

GE appliances are the first to serve up healthier eating with a MyPlate feature on the over-the-range microwave ovens. The MyPlate button allows users to easily cook foods found in the USDA’s recommended dietary guidelines. For example, you can use the MyPlate feature to select a preset for cooking specific vegetables, such as fresh asparagus, frozen green beans, and other veggies along with fruits, whole grains, and lean proteins.

MyPlate encourages healthier eating

“Our goal with the MyPlate feature is to give consumers an easy way to choose and tastefully cook foods that are healthier for them, using graphics and instructions that are easy to understand,” said Susan Gregory, product manager for GE microwaves. “Providing quality cooked food for a wide range of items is a huge part of the MyPlate feature.”
