    The history of Eat Your Vegetables Day starts with an awareness of nutrition and the role it plays in a healthy lifestyle. Vegetables have always played an important role in the lives of humans, all the way back to when we were simply hunter-gatherers. Vegetables were one of the hallmarks of civilization, and are arguably the reason we settled and stopped being nomads, we couldn’t travel anymore when we planted our crops, we had to be there to tend them as they grew.

    I’m having chips with mine.

    And Happy Father’s Day too - probably don’t give your Dad a vegetable.

    That's either a very big mug or else you must have the worlds smallest dog.

    Do vegetarians count as part of a meat free diet?

  14. I'm a natural veggie, but I'll admit I find a nice piece of sauteed vegan very appealing :thumbsup:
