Eating 2 to 4 servings of Fruit

I find breakfast is a good place to start building up my fruit servings. I start with a glass of juice, then add some fresh blueberries or strawberries to my breakfast cereal. With a small piece of fruit around 12 midday, I have already completed half my quota!

I try to make at least 1 serving from citrus fruit. Orange and grapefruit juice are standard options.

When possible I select fresh fruit in season. In the Northern hemiphere, strawberries are available in February and apples in May. If they are not in season they must be flown into the market from other climates or placed into storage.
out of season fruit tend to be grown for longevity rather than flavor. it's no wonder so many people are turned off by fruit when it means red but flavorless winter strawberries or mushy melons!
instead choosing oranges or grapefruit in winter and berries in spring, means there's a better chance that the fruit was grown locally and will end up tasting juicy and fresh!
