This is interesting. We eat lots of vegetables (both raw and cooked) because we grow all of our own produce each season. We preserve much of it using different methods as well.
As far as high-fructose corn syrup -- that’s not the same as naturally occurring fructose in fruit, right? I definitely should eat more fruit. My husband loves it, though. He eats about 3 servings a day.
We’re definitely carnivores around here too, eating grass-fed beef and free-range chicken everyday, except Fridays.
If you eat a lot of veggies you don't really need the fruit too. Some people don't eat veggies much and the recommendations often group them together as if the same.
3 servings a day for a man probably isn't too much.
High fructose corn syrup is in a lot of beverages now.
I agree! Plus even pure juice (no added sugar, etc.) is often strained to remove pulp and skins (in the case of berry juice), so it further removes it from the actual fruit.

Yes. We don’t drink any sodas at all and, actually, we don’t even drink pure juice. I’d rather have a piece of fruit than juice from that same fruit.
Perfect. Too easy to overconsume calories in beverages because the body appetite signals don't recognize it the same as food, quite.
