Every single month of the year has a "National _______ Month" designation. Heck, I think every day has celebrates something. June has a few celebrations, and National Fruit and Vegetable Month is one of them.
Of course, you should eat a lot of fruit and vegetables all year round, but if one month can get you going, then it's a good thing. June is usually the month when I start to eat more salads and apples and oranges anyway, as I'm sure it is with a lot of people, so it's good timing.
Here's more info and tips about the month, along with links to other sites about healthy eating. And if you insist on eating a whole pizza tonight, at least put some mushrooms and onions on it.

(At Crabby's grouchy fitness blog she has a whole post about this, but unless you're really bored you're better off not clicking

The product is called The Mini Mate. I was given this product as a gift for Christmas, and could never be happier with it! It helps keep my fruits and veggies fresher, helps them last longer, and eliminates odors in the fridge!! The company has a website that you should look at if you want more info. www.pionair.net and I also found them on myspace. www.myspace.com/minimate07 Trust me, this product works wonders on your fruits and veggies and saves you money on them as well!!
