Take a nod from Whole Foods and
sell your family on a fresh fruit snack. |
Need a simple way to get your family to eat more fruits? Find your favorite large container, whether it be a wooden bowl or basket (I would suggest non-breakable as you want your kids to use it daily), fill it with fresh fruit, and place it in a prominent place on your kitchen counter. Keep it stocked and odds are in your favor that your family will consume more fruit than when it is hidden in plastic grocery bags in the refrigerator.

My fresh fruit bowl: always
available for snacks and a great
reminder for choosing
fresh veggies for dinner. |
Not sure that something this simple will work? Ask yourself why Whole Foods' produce sections can make you believe that you could live off fresh fruits and vegetables alone but the average grocery store's produce section only leads you to look for the frozen foods? The answer is merchandising; Whole Foods displays their vegetables spilling from rustic baskets, under soft lighting, but a beautiful bowl filled with the bright colors of the freshest fruits of the season will also create an enticing reminder for your toughest customers (i.e. your children) to reach for fruit.
