Imagine a sunday roast of just beef & potato.

That's me.

I don't eat any vegetables by choice, I would if I had to though.

Fruit though I actually HATE, I will never eat any

I do eat quite a lot vegetables/fruit, i could eat even more if i wasnt lazy enough with cooking/doing shopping. I love salad, tomatoes, fruit juices, carrots etc, i could eat them all the time i suppose, i also like pasta a lot

I also know people that will not ever touch vegetables or fruit even juice, only coke or tea with 5 sugars and fast food all the time, their died is very strange to me.

 

[WillyNelson]

potato is a vegetable einstein

Lol. Indeed it is. I don't really count it though as it's in with the staple carbs like pasta, rice & cous-cous.

Meat + carbs + veg = Meal

Yeah eat loads of veg and salad.
Almost no fruit though, don't have dessert to often and I just don't dig fruit on it's own. Don't hate them or anything though.

I'm not a huge fan of fruit. I'll eat it every so often when I get cravings but not all the time.

You can have vegetarians and vegans, no more surprising to hear the opposite end of the scale. I recently started taking supplements with meals because I'm such a lousy eater.

I know two vegetarians that don't eat vegetables. They literally live on chips, processed food and cheese.

I've never understood how people can say they don't eat vegetables. I get that they may not count chips or beans and to be fair, neither would I, but no veg at all?! Imagine a sunday roast of just beef & potato. No broccoli, cabbage or carrots. No green beans with a nice bit of fish. No sprouts at christmas, no asparagus ever! I just can't fathom it.

I've read it on here! Seen pictures of someone's Sunday or Christmas roast and there were replies along the lines of 'eurgh, what's all that green stuff on the plate?' and they literally just eat meat, potato and gravy

I rarely eat veg, the odd carrot, tomato, peas is as far as it goes.

 

[mjer1984]

i do eat vegetables if they are presented to me with a meal, on the other hand I have no space to store any in my fridge so very rarely keep them in my house.

 

[Philip]

I normally eat what is put in front of me, if there vegtables there I eat them aswell.

 

[Glaucus]

That's me.

how. You need at least roast onions, parsnips and butter squash with that.
Then chuck in something along the lines of wine braised cabbage, stir-fried cabbage with egg, braised leeks, cauliflower cheese, roast carrots, Gem squash mash, stem broccoli.

People should try squashes they are great. Gem sqaush just boil, scoop out the inside and mash with a bit of butter. Butternut is fantastic roasted, mashed, or souped.

 

[.:MBK:.]

dont go out of my way to include them in my diet but some vegetable matter is usually involved, and eaten

 

[kenshinu]

If it's cooked nice then yes. Otherwise no. But potato, onion and broccoli om nom nom.

 

[Nix]

To those people who don't eat many vegetables, or none at all; you must look and feel terrible.

 

[Vonhelmet]

Of course I do. I value my health, and either way I like them.

 

[Ma'am]

I eat loads of veg, steamed not boiled. My favourites are broad beans, fresh peas and cauli

 

[svbooga]

didnt like vegetables when i was younger, it wasnt until i started going to sunday dinner at my girlfriends house that i realised veg could be nice if it wasnt cooked to death. Properly cooked veg is brilliant, boiled to death vegetables suck.

 

[Guerrilla]

I love veg, and there isn't much i won't eat so i eat a lot of it.

Particular favourites are things which aren't so common in foods though courgettes, aubergines, spinach etc.

It's also rather scary when i thought about the sheer amount of onion and garlic i eat in my diet!

 

[drizzy]

Animals eat plants so I don't have to.

 

[Lanz]

I'd say 90% of my (our) veg intake is broccoli and corn on the cob, as it's the only stuff my toddler likes.

 

[Freefaller]

I eat a LOT of vegetables, especially green leafy veggies as they are so so important and good for you, and also helps keep your body slightly alkaline which it prefers.

On a daily basis I eat at least 4-5 portions of veggies and 4 portion of fruit. Love the stuff... but then I do eat over 3.5kcals a day too

 

[MookJong]

Yes I intend to live a long and healthy life so I eat fruit and veg daily and getting all 5 a day at lest 3 times a week. I really believe nutrition has a massive effect on your physical and mental wellbeing.

If I go away for a weekend with my mates or something and haven't had any for a couple of days I actually start to feel sluggish and crave it.
