Not that long ago the t.v had a series of adverts telling us to eat 5 fruits a day, yet what comes to my mind is simply a fruit salad which i imagine would cover the amount then recommended,


Q; do you like fruit salads in general or do you eat five fruits a day
i must  confess i don't how ever i do like the occasional  banana,

I keep bags of fruit in the freezer and take out blueberries, cherries etc. as needed.  I add yogurt and top with walnuts and goji berries.  That's my breakfast every day so most of my five a day and done early.

Don't forget your veggie too.
I eat at least 6 types each day, unpeeled for fibre.

I eat a fair bit of fresh fruit but less than I should in the way of vegetables. I saw a program once which mentioned that the 5 a day was simply a number plucked from the air with no evidence at all.

I tend to regard the juice of the grape as meeting my needs

:grin: :grin: :grin:  Like Sheila I keep bags of frozen fruit, blueberries and raspberries to eat with porridge or pancakes.  I don't eat enough vegetables.

I don't eat much fruit or veg.. Blueberries.. Bananas..
Sometimes have broccoli tips.. Or put one of those steam bag things in microwave..

Home made veg soup, veg with our dinners or salads, plus I make a smoothie of banana, pineapple, and frozen berries most mornings for breakfast.  I think I've got it covered much of the time.

sadly i now eat what i fancy, i used to get the frozen berries, but i'm afraid i lapsed, i have an excellent diet in Goa, and also eat lots of fruit, but while at home i spoil myself, and sadly i have been at home for a while... but i do buy pitted prunes and have five of those a day, to keep me regular...

I always eat fruit every day. In the warmer weather I drink a lot of fresh fruit smoothies and natural bio yogurt mixed in. Good for ya and lovely taste. My favourite is a mix of rasps, strawberry, kiwi fruit, yoghurt and blended with coconut water.
