I saw this article today ranking Oklahoma as last on the national list of states consuming enough fruit on a daily basis: LINK.
What I found sad about the article is the fact that nationally, OJ is considered a favorite fruit and potatoes a favorite vegetable (mainly fried versions I imagine). What extreme non-fibrous and sweet/salty/fatty representatives of the fruit and veg categories!

This bit of the linked article above I found disturbing:
"Ad psychologist Carol Moog says kids may be disappointed to find all the flashy ads are really just for carrots. She says they need to make carrots more fun — like, perhaps, putting an orange (but natural) dusting on carrots that mimics Cheetos."
The only dust I want to see on carrots is dirt. From the ground in which it was grown.
