The consumption of fruits and vegetables have increased in the past 30 years due to educating consumers on the health benefits of eating this type of food.
Yes.Rhubarb is in fact a vegetable, one of the most unusual because it is eaten with sugar. The identity of rhubarb has vexed gardeners and chefs for years, so much so in fact, that a in 1947 a US court ruled it was a fruit.It's considered a vegetable here in UK as the edible stalks of the rhubarb plant grow from a sturdy rhizone (underground stem), and the best stalks are long, thin, vibrant pink and tender, and are the result of being force-grown in artificial darkness.
There has been much controversy as to whether or not corn is a vegetable or a fruit. Actually, many scientists have declared corn to be a grain. In a study carried out in 2000, nutritionists from Yale University said that because they weren't root plants, they couldn't be vegetables. Nutritionist Deborah Baker, a CEO of Food Science Inc. stated that corn couldn't be a fruit either since it didn't grow from a seed. Only 2 years ago, a new study was carried out by the Nutrition and Health Forums and the results did indeed reveal that corn is a vegetable. Farmers have been injecting nutrients into their corn to avoid destruction of the crop due to insects. This created genetically modified corn. The modifications of the corn had rearranged the structure of the root causing the belief that corn couldn't be a root vegetable. The overall belief that corn is a grain has now been proven false due to recent studies.
Pickles are cucumbers. Cucumbers are vegatables. Yeah. they're actually baby cucumbers. No. Cucumbers are a fruit. My 2 cents: Most people don't seem to understand what fruits and vegetables are from a botanical standpoint versus a dietary (food groups) standpoint. Most people consider a tomato to be a vegetable dietary wise but it is a fruit botanically speaking. From a dietary (food groups) standpoint pickles/cucumbers could go either way IMO.
It depends on the type of vegetable and the conditions in which they are kept. Percentage viability will always drop off over the years.
It's recommended to have 5+ fruits and vegetables a day. All in all, try to have at least 3 servings of fruit in the day and 2 vegetable servings at dinner. Everything in moderation. If your hungry reach for an apple rather than chips.
