Baked beans?

Do they count towards "5 a day"?

I go along with the belief that some mother feed their kids rubbish. The occasional "fast food" treat won't do them any harm, but they need a balanced diet that includes fruit and vegetables. It is not as expensive as some make out. I actually hear people say they can't afford fresh fruit and vegetables - saying it with a cigarette hanging out of their mouth, the father down the pub every night, making sure they buy their weekly lotto tickets and filling their supermarket trolley with all the junk food imaginable thinking they are feeding their kids well. But still can't "afford" fruit and veg.

Talking of foodie obsessions, would anybody regard the eating of 10 clementines (a whole string bag) *every* day as unusual or abnormal?
