Do you like to have fruit after every meals, such as lunch and supper? My mom always forced me to have some fruit after supper, because that is healthy, which fruit help me to digest better with all the meat I just ate. I don't use to have fruit after every meal, but now, I getting a habit out of it.

We often will have fruits after meals. This seems to be our best time to have fruits. Especially we often have watermelon everyday in summer. I love China

Yes, it had been a norm to my family to have some fruits after we have our meal. Same like you, my parents also always advise us to have some fruits after our every meal. My parents will always display the fruits, on the table where we have our meal. So, after meal, my parents always make sure we must ate at least one type of the fruits, before we left the table. Anyway, eating fruits after our meal is a way of building our healthy digestion system.

Fruit after meal? I do it rarely... Just because i don't have enough money to buy fruit everyday. I just buy some cup of fruit juice and drink that. It's easier, I think.

sometimes we do have fruit after meal. for example bananas and papayas. as much as possible we would like to.but because of financial problems. we are not able to do so.

I would love to but it is always depending on the availabity of funds. Depends on the fruit in season. I love melon, mango and watermelons. Sometimes we have them after meals at least once a day. Mostly we have fruits at least once a week. If there are ripe fruits of papaya that we can get from our backyard then we have those. There are times we have bananas. There are times we don't have them everyday, we try at least once a week and mom usually cook vegetables.

i eat fruits before meals. fruits digest faster than the meal proper. i am so used to eat fruits first , it becomes a habit and it stays that way with me and my family. in a way, when i eat fruts first, i wont eat a large meal. perhaps this is a reason why i am still in my normal weight zone. maybe. oh yes, i am still vey happy and satisfied with eating fruits befor meal. thus when i go out for buffet lunch or dinners at restaurants, i head for the fruit section first. its odd but i enjoy it this way. well do it your way and enjoy your meals.you are the one that is nourishing your body. eat to live.
