    I eat like a brontasaurus:
    Green smoothie: banana, celery, cucumber, tangerine juice
    Second breakfast: apple, blueberry

    Lunch: kale, sweet potato, pumpkin, tomato

    Dinner: lentils, carrot, capsicum, onion, coriander, zucchini

    So that's 4 kinds of fruit and 12 kinds of veg

    Yesterday I had: Breakfast: grapes, carrot; lunch: peach, little gem lettuce; dinner: soup with potato, peas, onion, garlic, chili, celery.
    Today I will eat: Breakfast: grapes, carrot; lunch: peach, broccoli; dinner: wraps with lettuce and onion.

    I count this as 2 fruit and 3 vegetable portions per day - which is my goal.

    Today so far? None.

    Usually maybe 2 or 3. I've been enjoying a curried chicken soup with lots of cauliflower and carrots in it for the past week. Otherwise I snack on seasonal fruit in the evening. Right now it's stuff like cherries, berries, watermelon, pineapple... yum.

    I don't eat a lot of raw veggies but I use them in cooking.

    Once in a while I see jackfruit at the store, but it goes by the pound so it would be really expensive (those things are huge lol). I really need to try it sometime though.

    The only meal I had time for today was breakfast.
    That had broccoli, cauliflower, carrots and zucchini and an apple.

    If caffeine was a vegetable, I would have far exceeded a recommended daily amount.

    Why not come over and join the rebooted "10 servings a day" challenge over in the Challenges forum, veggie & fruit lovers? It's only a week!

    http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/10521320/10-a-day-800g-veggie-fruit-challenge-participants-check-in

    So far, I had mixed berries, cantaloupe, tomatoes, Cousa squash, avocado, cucumber, adzuki beans, bell peppers, and onions. Also pickles and salsa, which are mostly veggies. And I might still eat some plums.

    I have never had fresh jackfruit. This was canned jackfruit that I cooked with BBQ sauce to make a "pulled pork"-type wrap.

    And besides the canned type @janejellyroll mentioned, Upton's Naturals brand has some pretty tasty pre-sauced jackfruit that's available in all the healthy-ish food stores here in my midwestern US midsized city. It's in the refrigerated section where they have vegan fake meat, in a box.

    Whole Foods locally has had cut-up chunks in the produce area lately, too. IIRC, it's near other precut fruits such as watermelon, but don't 100% rely on that specific a memory from me!

    Worth trying, either as a fresh fruit, or a pulled pork stand-in (doesn't taste at all like pork, but does taste good).

    If beans are vegetables then I think I win. I eat 700 calories of beans a day.

    I think I could power my car with the amount of gas I would produce if I were to try that.

    Today: lettuce, tomato, banana, broccoli, carrots, kale
