Everybody knows that we shopuld be eating fruits and vegetables. But how many of us really get more than one serving of each of these every day? Do we actually get them by the bag and make ourselves eat a daily portion with the same regularity as we drink our coffee?

When it comes to coffee, most of us are compulsive. We cannot seem to get going with our first cup in the morning. Then we cannot seem to make through that ten o'clock break at work unless we have another. Then it's a necessary addition for lunch followed by yet another at two with possibly two along with dinner.

Are any of us as much into carrots and apples? Do we start the day off with one or both? Are either present at mid morning? What about the salad without the dressing for lunch, an apple at mid- afternoon followed by a few oranges and an avocado with dinner?

Then too, there is always the early morning trip to the vegetable juice bar, is there not? And possibly we even take a jar or two of carrot juice to work. That is how we are, is it not? Of course we aren not. And the of course is the problem.

Few of us are this regular when it comes to fruits and vegetable. Certainly we are when it come to coffee, the accepted American drink. The mere thought of all of those vegetables and pieces of fruit when our friends and co-workers are having that freshly brewed coffee must seem almost absurd. Which would be better for us? Yet which do we do?

Adults drink coffee possibly with a daily donut or two. Child-like people snack on fruits and vegetables. Perhaps there are some places where a person can get away with crunching on an apple or a few celery stalks, but tthere are not that many. There certainly are far less than there are places where one can buy a cup of coffee to relax and revitalize.

Too one would never hear why do we not meet at the health food shop for banana smoothie. Clearly two girl frineds might do this on a day off, but this would never be a guy-thing.
