5 a day – who’s kidding who ?

Which is more shocking ? A higher proportion of British people consume 5 portions of fruit and vegetables a day than any other European country. or Only 22% of Britons consume their 5 a day.

Both statements are true and are drawn from a Nielsen survey of 29,000 internet respondents across 58 countries.

Perhaps even less likely, only 8% of Europeans on average consume their 5 a day, from 18% of Irish and 14% of Swiss to 1% of Polish and Portuguese, with Croations rounded down to 0%.
