Quiz: One in seven children think fruit and veg originate in supermarket

One out of every seven children believes that fruit and vegetables originate in supermarkets, according to a new survey of attitudes to fresh food.

Up to 29% of children are not eating enough fruit and veg every day, according to Grow it Yourself founder Michael Kelly who has launched an initiative aimed at getting primary school pupils to grow their own food. He has called on the Government to put food on the curriculum.

The GIY-commissioned survey carried out by Behaviour and Attitudes found that half of families said they had grown some of their own food at home in the last year.
