How many varieties of fruit and veg have you eaten this week

[BasinHaircut]

Not how many portions, just different types.

I’ve had 4 fruits and 15 veg.

Decades ago when I was vegetarian I mostly lived on bread & cheese. So did most the vegetarians I knew.

Since I started eating meat I eat a lot more veg. This week...

9 Fruits: tomatoes, cucumber, bananas, orange, date, olives, grapes, mango, pears
8-9 Veg: red cabbage, carrot, parsnip, brocoli, red pepper, possibly peas, mushrooms, leek, beetroot
beans & humus too.

Interesting... mushrooms, peppers, onions, potatoes, spinach, watercress, tomatoes, cucumber, broccoli, Chinese leaf, water chestnuts, bamboo shoots, lots of beans and pulses, apples, bananas, oranges, pears, frozen cherries, dried mango.

You can definitely eat a shit vegan diet!

Fruit- apples, pears, tangerines, raisins. I eat more fruit in the summer usually, So just 4.

Veg- spuds, broccoli, green beans, tomatoes, spinach, peppers of probably all different colours, spring onions, normal onions, leeks, carrots, garlic, chillies, ginger and do lentils and tinned tomatoes count? So between 10 and 15 depending on definitions!

I thought this was fairly average? I'm not eating anything particularly out there and most people probably have banana, carrot and peas in an average week while I'm not keen on any of them.

Today we’re having a curry I’m making with sweet potato, spinach and chickpeas plus any veg I find in the fridge that needs using up before we shop again.

I eat a lot of fruit but do need to be vigilant about my veg as I can let that slip, despite eating a mostly veggie diet (pescatarian really - occasionally we eat fish but most days are veggie). I’m pregnant now so really conscious of getting at least my 5 a day, and making sure that there’s plenty of veg in that not just fruit (I’ve just had 3 portions of fruit for breakfast for example, definitely need to focus on the veg now).

Lettuce
Cucumber
Tomato
Red Onion

Peas
Carrots
Bean sprouts

Strawberries

So, 15 in total, 11 veg and 4 fruit ^
