Weirdly, no!
Purées soups are fine, just not smoothies.
Go figure!

Because the amount in sandwhich is likely to be 20g or less.
1 serving is 80g. ☺️

I may have understood the expression wrong. I thought ‘meat and two veg’ meals just meant, traditional, everyday favourites?
Like when people say ‘He is a meat and two veg kinda bloke’?
Have I always got this wrong??? I wasn’t meaning it literally!

Oh! Text from my lovely publisher to tell me ‘10-A-Day the easy way’ is now in the top 10 best selling books in the country.
Thanks SO MUCH for the support, everyone! It was a lot of hard slog. I hope you find the geeky science and simple tips useful!

It’s just an expression though?
‘Meat and two veg’ meaning : A normal, traditional meal?

Oh? I wish I could be like you.
I just had to grab more some muesli and an orange for the train home, just an hour or two later!

I think much the same about people that use the word ‘douche’.

Well that’s me #botanysplained then!
The structural compounds in all plant cells are carbs. And cellulose is most definitely one. 😝

It’s totally possible to do in normal, everyday ‘meat & 2 veg’ type meals.
At 3 meals a day, that’s already has gotten you to 6-A-Day.
Add a single carrot/onion/handful of frozen peas to each of those favourites and you are at 9-A-Day.
Boom!

Interesting you say ‘who’, as it is indeed ‘WHO’: The World Health Organisation.
It’s based on scientific evidence that we should be eating a min of 400g (5 servings) or fruit & veg a day, but ideally closer to 10 servings to reduce health certain risks.
