A recent study by The Produce For Better Health Foundation shows that 90 percent of consumers do not eat the recommended five or more daily servings of fruits and vegetables. Disney is helping parents get through this challenge with the launch of Disney Garden, an innovative new line of character-themed fruit and vegetable snacks and sides that are kid-tested and conveniently packaged.

Disney Garden's new food products will be unveiled for the first time this week at the Produce Marketing Association (PMA) Fresh Summit in Houston, TX (October 12th - 15th) – an international trade show attended by the produce and floral industry.

Presented by Mickey, Minnie, Donald and Goofy, and with names like Totally Teriyaki Sugar Snap Peas, Sunny Honey Orange Carrot Coins, Threezy Cheezy Broccoli Bites, My Size Minis and Foodles, the new line of Disney Garden selections offers options that are nutritious and fun – at school, home or on the go. All of the products meet Disney's food guidelines which place limits on calories, fat, saturated fat, sugar and sodium.

Then you're both in luck. Saw a piece on the news saying that Disney and Tesco have entered into a partnership to sell these products in the UK. Supposed to be starting with fruit next month and then into yoghurts and cereals etc.
