Fruits
Fruits provide carbohydrate, vitamins, minerals, and fiber.
Examples of fruit include
* apples * fruit juice * strawberries * dried fruit * grapefruit

What are healthy ways to eat fruits?
* Eat fruits raw or cooked, as juice with no sugar added, canned in their own juice, or dried.
* Buy smaller pieces of fruit.
* Choose pieces of fruit more often than fruit juice. Whole fruit is more filling and has more fiber.
* Save high-sugar and high-fat fruit desserts such as peach cobbler or cherry pie for special occasions.
