I want your Vote!


Time to Vote

Don’t worry; there are no pregnant chads (or hanging chads, for that matter).

.

Should the next month be…

1. “Hug a Vegetable”

(to promote/celebrate eating the recommended 5-9 servings per day)

.

2. “Hug a Veg Protein”

(Robert’s list of vegetarian high-protein foods would come in handy here/to show it’s easy and yummy to get enough protein in a veg diet)

.

3. “Hug a Fruit”

(to pay homage to nature’s candy, an also to dispel the myth that fruits such as bananas, mangoes, and pineapples are bad for you due to their high sugar content)

.

4. “Hug a Dessert”

(to show that one can—and should—make room for treats in a healthy diet)

.

I have a few more ideas, so if none of the above sound intriguing enough (or if you’d rather be surprised), vote for:

5. “Surprise Me”

Meet Katie

    Well my vote would definitely go with hug a dessert it it weren’t summer. Summer’s the best time for fruit so you’d get the widest variety now. Even thooouughh healthy desserts are my all time favorite0-there’s plenty more months for that!
    Ok, ok..fruit. 😛

    Hug a fruit! I would hug a biiig juicy canteloupe. And I think a lot of people are scared away by the sugar content in fruit. We must ban that fear!!

    I like the hug a pet idea! But from the options in your post, I’m going with hug a fruit…it was what I suggested in your last post, so I’m sticking with it. Plus, what is better than a juicy piece of fruit in the summer?
