I admit I found the digestion spiral hard to follow, too, at least at that size, but I thought the plate was clear and attractive (apart from those pesky venn diagram overlaps ;-) Hmm, I don’t think the overlapping circles are meant to be a venn diagram; I think they’re just meant to be servings on a plate.

The spiral was way too busy to read, though it might work on a larger scale. In my opinion the best was the first slied, the square blocks, which best represented the quantitative data, and also worked well for individual food labels.

It clearly a venn diagram- but what do the overlapping sections represent? Sorry to sound negative for once, but I don’t think that the circles worked.
