The average child should eat 2-5 servings of fruit and vegetables. However, considering that the human population is growing immensely, and our crops are not growing as much fruit and vegetables as we would like them to. So really, if you were to ask this very same question is 2-3 years, you would notice that the answer would become very different. Now, so every can fully understand, this answer was posted May 5 2012 alright, and if it is such a big deal I am writing this at 4:15pm, so, just to clarify, at this exact moment, the average child shoud consume 2-5 servings of vegetables each day.... not each year, although i seem to get mixed up with that alot. Sorry about this long paragraph, but I just strongly feel that everyone should be able to full see my true colours, or true colors if you are from America. Goodbye everyone, this is me saying over and out. Btw, hope this helped all of you :) And again I apologise for it being so long, but congrats to you if you read the whole thing :)
