Eat Your Vegetables Day



You're not leaving this site until you finish your vegetables!

It’s a little ironic that zany holiday Eat Your Vegetables Day occurs during National Candy Month. One guess as to which one people prefer to celebrate! However, whichever you prefer to celebrate today is the day to celebrate vegetables, specifically eating them! The USDA recommends that vegetables are eaten everyday; a good habit that some of use sometimes ignore! Luckily that’s why we have Ear Your Vegetables Day, to remind us of the importance of forging nutritious eating habits!

Why not use today to forge that new, nutritious path. Kick off your new lifestyle with veggies. Eat a vegetable at every meal today, eat veggies for snacks! It’s the perfect time to learn about health portions, healthy eating and healthy choices! Maybe you’ll find that you like spinach a lot more than you recall! So get cookin’ on this Zany Holiday; and remember kids, Ketchup doesn’t count!
