Having trouble eating your 5 portions of fruit and veg?

i got a soloution some of you may not have thought about.

well everyone knows we're supposed to eat 5 fruit/veg a day, yeah? well i'm pretty damn sure 90% of us don't. but anyway

people should try and drink home made smoothies. like you can get the smoothie makers, or you can just use an original blender. i used to have them a lot, and i'm going to start having them for breakfast, and they are filling, and have one at night/when i get home from school or w.e

anyway, smoothies are really tasty and fill you up quite a bit. that's coming from me, and i eat absolutely loads..

anyway, now onto things you can put in them.

i usually put in fruit, yoghurt, and ice cubes, but you can use anything..

fruit
milk
cream
yoghurt
ice cubes
fruit juice

or you could like even try experimenting with things you wouldn't normally combine together. i tried ice cubes toffee yoghurt and banana and it was really really nice (my fave atm)

but anyway yeah, for those people who are trying to get toned up, or a bit fitter, or just trying to eat healthy.

i think you should give these a go :]

lol, i hate smoothies.

smoothies don't take long ;p like 30 seconds. but yeah i'm lazy too

Someone like bizzare foods around the world or w.e It was on sky.

I have no problems eating fruit, I simply love fruits for some reason. My problem is eating veggies, seems the only veggie I like to eat is corn, and my mum can't get it everyday, so. -.- Meh. Great suggestion though, +rep.

i'll try it when i can be bothered... like say never?

i eat all kinds of fruits and veggies so yeah

another good idea is just to get a big bowl and chop up all teh diff fruits you like and mix it all in together and pour some fresh orange on top to add a little more taste.

i put strawberries
apples
banana
kiwi
grapes
oranges all in mine.

lmao, yeh a fruit salad ;p

I eat, my smoothies with bannana mostly, or with some other stuff.I also add in my protein pouder.

I probably dont eat 5 peaces a year... in fact im pretty sure i dont, aint done me no harm "/, its another urban myth taken as scientifc fact like all the 6 leters of water a day rubbish, dispite the fact it was never claimed by any scientic body and was disputed and disproven by pretty much everyone in the field "/

I've always wanted to make a smoothie, just never got round to it. My brother used to have them all the time before when he was trying to join the RAF, and needed to put on weight.

For school I have a fruit salad, 5 fruits, a day, get about 2 veg a day.
So everyday I have 7/10 :p
Smoothies are lovely, but I end up wanting to put ice cream in them ;)
