More & more these days, you hear the phrase "Eat the Rainbow". I know I hear it from my mom a lot, who I swear likes to get her rainbow in before noon.

I do have to admit that I love my fruits & veggies. Although I've never paid attention enough to make sure I had a "rainbow" of variety every day. But after discovering the "Eat the Rainbow" chart from Vitality International, I realize that I'm usually only off by two colors (blue & purple). It wouldn't be anything for me to add some red cabbage to a salad, or blueberries to my smoothie, in order to get a full rainbow. And since it's that simple, I think I'll do it!
