Good For You

Recently, while heading for the broccoli display at the grocery store, Jamie (my 7-year-old) threw his body in front of the stand and yelled, "No, no, don't! No more broccoli!"

I considered telling him that a serving of broccoli is only one cup (chopped) and gives him 90% of his daily requirement of vitamin A (beta carotene), 200% of vitamin C, 6% niacin, 10% of calcium, 10% thiamin, 10% of phosphorus and 8% of iron. It§ also rich in potassium and has 5 gr. of protein plus one cup has 25% of the fiber

you need each day!

Does he care? Nope. So, I just chuckled along with everyone else that could hear him within 40 yards. I said, "Ok, Jamie, we'll just get one head instead of 5 - what a deal!"
