Michigan Launches Fruits & Veggies - More Matters Campaign
The Michigan Department of Community Health, Office of the Surgeon General, Department of Agriculture and many local partners are proud to announce the Fruit & Veggies - More Matters campaign. This new campaign replaces the 5-A-Day campaign, encouraging Michiganders to eat more fruits and veggies at every eating occasion.
Research indicates that while more than half of all adults know they need to eat fruits and vegetables, over 90% of Americans do not eat the recommended amount. To meet the new recommendations, most consumers will have to more than double the amount they currently eat.
