    Out of curiosity, what exactly constitutes a 'serving' of a vegetable/fruit? I generally consider approx one 'veg/fruit' = one serving, but now I'm wondering if that's accurate.

    For instance, today I had:

    1 banana
    1 grapefruit
    a handful of dried dates
    1 large courgette
    1 tomato
    half a head of a medium cabbage
    1 beetroot
    1 large carrot
    1 red onion (and a few gloves of garlic)

    Is that about 9 servings of fruit and veg?
