Fruit and Food waste Nutrition
– Think about how much fruit you eat most days. Do any changes need to be made? Although fruit juice counts as a fruit, the latest recommendations encourage consumption of whole fruits most of the time (fiber!) and suggest consuming a variety of different types of fruits to vary your nutrients. If you think that change is needed, try it out this week. Or perhaps, try a new type of fruit one that you havent eaten before.
