Half of kids don't eat veg each day

More than half of kids don't eat a single portion of vegetables a day, according to Newsround's food survey.

The government recommends that everyone should have at least five portions of fruit and veg a day.

But the survey shows 52 in every 100 kids don't have any veg and 44 in 100 have no fruit on a daily basis.

Newsround heard from more than 1,400 children across the UK about what they eat and how much they know about how it affects them.
