com adds this: Americans fall very short of the goal to eat five servings of vegetables and four servings of fruit.
These guidelines are daunting at best.
I would suggest that most Americans eat an average of about 1 serving of fruit a day and maybe add another 1 vegetable.
The most popular "vegetables", eaten in America today are, Ketchup, spaghetti sauce, French fries and iceberg lettuce! Wow, an awesome amount of good nutrition there eh? Ok, so if we are concerned about out intake and that of our families, how in the world do we eat enough? Are they really serious about 5- 10 servings a day and even up to 10 -13, depending on who you read? If so, I need to get going and it's too late today.
Tomorrow I will go to the store and load up on fruits and vegetables and we will eat them.
