Do crisps count as one of your 5-a-day??

Yeah they definitely do. And the dehydration process helps to really condense all the nutrients into the crisps so it's probably better than your normal pieces of fruits and vegetables!!!!

I mean, potatoes definitely count

So on one hand we have the daily mail and dr Richard Wiseman saying that they are good for us but on the other we have radio one and the daily mail saying they are not. Who can we trust???
If crisps count as 1/5 a day, then so must the Strawberry flavoured Roses/Quality Street. And Terry's Chocolate Orange, of course. I mean, they're so big they must count as 2 of your 5 a day.

And let's not even get started on how healthy a pack of Jaffa Cakes must be.

he did not state that crisps are anything. He said the 5 a day thing is a myth and it is a marketing strategy which obviously worked
