Be honest now: Do you eat your five-a-day? Each and every day?

By five-a-day, of course, I mean the five daily servings of fruits and vegetables, as recommended by the government.

If you don't get them in, then you're like most Americans.

According to CNN, a new Centers for Disease Control report shows that fewer than a third of adults eat the five fruits and vegetables a day. What's more, most of us haven't meet our five-a-day requirement on a regular basis for more than a decade.

After reading this, I took a few minutes to see if I'm one of the majority of people who didn't pull it off today. As it turns out, I only got in four servings today. It wasn't a good day for fruits, because I ran out (except for a moldy tangerine in the back of fridge) and need to make a run to the grocery store. But I did good with my veggies, especially if you count the roasted vegetables on top of my pizza.

And, I should point out that I'd definitely hit (and exceed) my five-a-day if you count a couple glasses of fruity red wine... but I'm not sure if that's what the government had in mind.

Fortunately, the CDC has several tips on their website to help people like me figure out how to work in the fruits and veggies.

A lot of them seem like common sense. For instance, add fruit to your cereal each morning or whip up a banana smoothie as a snack. And some of them are a little more creative, such as making homemade salsas using anything from tomatoes to pineapple and mangoes. Or perhaps puree and freeze leftover fruits into popsicles.

It's worth it to take a look at the tips. I got some good ideas so that tomorrow I might make it to five. Plus, it's good to know that the CDC doesn't seem to have any problem counting the veggies on the top of your pizza.
