View submission: Do you eat your 5 a day?

View parent comment

You're kinda missing my point. It's not like I spend ages freaking out over how difficult it is to understand, it's that "5 a day" is catchy but misleading *because* there are caveats. And like yeah, one grape obviously doesn't count, how many grapes are you supposed to eat for it to count?

Edit: I'm not asking the question in earnest, stop telling me how many grapes, I'm pointing out the ambiguity and inconsistency of the 5 a day rule

It's usually "a handful"

If you imagine a normal type fruit and its size - apple, banana, pear etc. Then eat roughly the same size of smaller fruit. 20 raspberries but 50 blueberries.
