For most of my life, I've been able to get my 5/day in without trying too hard - but lately, vegetables and fruit just don't sound appetizing at all.
Has anyone else experienced something similar? Any idea why?

I love fruit and vegetables and crave them most of the time. I have to say though, I go through phases where I don't want to see them and just want things like pasta/rice. Luckily that only lasts a few days. I think this happens to me when I deprive myself of other food groups.
Another theory, is that when my blood sugar is low I want the carbs, and veggies just wont cut it! Good Luck!0 -
Not sure why this is happening to you however,.i personally just dont like taking most vegtables. I take a supplement that provides me with my 8 servings of fruits and vegtables in one scoop in the morning.
check it out it is called Greens

For me, I've always been a picky eater and the thing for me is texture. What my wife does to combat this is puree's a lot of things for me. Either make a smoothie, or a soup, etc. This helps me get the servings I need, and I won't be gagging when there's a texture I wouldn't normally like!0

I used to live a life full of daily vegetables and succulent, low-hanging fruit. But over time, I noticed I was having less and less; The interest just wasn't there.
It turns out that I had "low-t", but my doctor changed all of that.
He gave me Androgel. It has such a vile taste that I immediately face-plant into a bowl of fruit just to clear it from my tongue! Now, I get all the fruits and veggies I need! Thanks Androgel!0 -
Sounds like you are just in a rut. Maybe you are bored with what you usually have? Try experimenting with new recipes or fruits & veggies you've never had before.0

I don't have the urge to eat people, living flesh, or brains - so I don't think I've been bitten by a zombie . . .
However, I have been abstaining from sweets for a couple of months now. Maybe I'm just wanting more calorie dense foods to compensate. If that's true, my problem will correct itself in 15 days!0 -
Over the holidays did you eat a lot of junkier foods? Or more decadent foods? :P I think that's why I've lost my interest. Either way, you aren't alone! We're on the same boat!0

Cover it all in chocolate and or bacon.
Your interest will come back.0 -
I like to scramble it up in an eggy scramble, or tuck them in lasagna or meatloaf. Well, I love vegies, so I put them in everything. But in your case putting them in stuff like casseroles might be a way to disguise them.0
