It used to be an Apple a day, now it's seven of the fucking things! I'm fairly sure 'experts' just make this shit up to give themselves something to do...

I go with fruit pastilles. There are 5 flavours in a packet, hence 5 of my, now 7 a day.

Also Haribo contains vegetables, so that's the other 2 accounted for.

Sorted!!

Would a half pint or pint suffice of cider?

I'd go with a pint just to make sure. And if you go for that new fangled fruity stuff, it can maybe count as 2 or 3!

Across Europe it varies. With only 5 a day Britain's recommendations were one of the lowest. There are other European countries which have had 7 a day as a benchmark for some time. France is one, I think.

I think a lot of it boils down to people either not making time to eat/cook properly or just plain lazy.

My grandparents lived into their late 90's and I have many aunt's and uncles in their late 70's and 80's. They all cook food from scratch, it's not even what 'experts' would call good food, it's mostly Polish peasant food. Lots of potatoes and fatty cuts of pork.

I think the 7 a-day idea is just a way to encourage people to eat something fresh without wasting time.

If it keeps people away from places like McDonalds then it's a good idea.
