Fruits and vegetables come in a variety of different colors. These colors
represent different nutritional components, such as beta carotene in
carrots and the anthocyanins in strawberries. Kids should try to eat a
different colored fruit and vegetable every day and make it goal to eat a
rainbow of colors each week.
