Be honest, do you eat your five portions of fruit and veg each day.
I generally do and somerimes more.
I can't fuck so I'm talking food instead.

"Being a vegetarian...yeah I do. But I don't think of it in those terms.
-Courtney "
I had orange juice and a banana for breakfast. I had an apple and some celery for elevensies. It occured to me that one more portion of veg and I've had my recommended daily allowance.
I was curious about other people's eating habits as I find it easy to incorporate fruit and veg into my diet, yet some of my friends say they dislike or rarely eat vegetables.
I very rarely eat meat myself so maybe this is a factor. |

"I probably don't even get near five a week.
I only eat veg at the weekends and I haven't had a piece of fruit for years. "
Is this Mr, Mrs or both ?
Either way its a punishable offence.  |

The decent research supporting this is...non-existent. They plucked a number out of thin air.
Most fruit is pure sugar and very unhealthy, as are smoothies and fruit juice. Best to stick to green leafys if you really want to eat that sort of stuff.

Everything in moderation I say. I do love veg though. I eat all my greens.
I always have veg with my dinner.
Leek soup on the stove just now. It is St Dai's day after all.  |

Always..and probably more like 6 or 7 without any deliberate effort as I have been eating that way for a few years now and my tastes have become very attuned to it. |

I do Most days. I agree that fruit is not as good for you as vegetables, and contains a lot of natural sugars but whoever said it was unhealthy is wrong. What about the fibre and vitamin and mineral content?
I'd much rather my kids ate a piece of fruit than a bag of sweets or crisps!

Yesterday I ate a home made soup which had - onion, leek, sweet potato, courgette, mange tout, green beans, parsnip, carrot, broccoli, spinach and kale in it
It was yummy snd I'm having another portion tonight for tea.
During the day at rhe moment I'm juicing so im eating 99% fruit and veg, with a little natural yoghurt and some porridge oats in rhe morning; )
Do I'm definitely getting more than 5 a day
Sadly daughter is tempting me by eating pringle and pot noodle

I actively avoid fruit, veg and fiber. It's not good for me to eat.
I drink fruit juice and have some veg such as peas and beans but on the whole not much. |

"Jees @ this thread....
We aren't "supposed" to eat dairy... and yet fruit, which by its very design we are "supposed" to eat is "mostly sugar" and bad for us?
