With Fruits & Veggies – More Matters™

You may be familiar with the 5-A-Day campaign to encourage Americans to eat more fruits and vegetables. After all, you can’t go into a grocery store without seeing the ubiquitous 5-A-day logo. Yet, if you are like many Americans, you are not getting your 5-A-Day according to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC). Only one in four Americans eat enough produce.

UCAN2 Cook! helps you add more of the delicious and nutritious foods into your diet. Fruits and vegetables are powerhouses for vitamins, minerals and fiber, are low in calories, and a great source of flavor! As the Fruits & Veggies – More Matters™ campaign replaces the 5-A-Day campaign, your Cooking Facilitator and our resources can help you include fruits and veggies into your meals – in delicious and creative ways that your family will love.
