[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kids eat the same amount as I do. I guess it depends on what you count. As single, whole vegetables, we eat different veggies for dinner every night. Certainly have a salad at least one night with multiple vegetables. Snack veggies for lunches/snacks. And then all the vegetables that go into cooking our homemade dinners. Do we count legumes? Grains? Different varieties of veggies? If so, I think we do this without thinking about it. And most people who eat meals at home in a relatively healthy fashion are probably pretty close to that goal. Using a CSA helped us expand our vegetable palate.

It would be very common for us to all eat the following in a week:
carrots
snap peas
cucumbers
cherry tomatoes
snack bell peppers
broccoli
green beans
peas
cauliflower
corn
kale
spinach
swiss chard
various lettuces 
cabbages (various kinds - napa, red, etc.)
olives
various onions
garlic
celery
beans
lentils
scallions
ginger
various potatoes

That's a nice variety, but it's still not 30-40.  Thanks for proving the point that 30-40 is absurd.[/quote]
