    this is awesome! when my kids were young it seemed as if every place we went they wanted to give the kids candy………fruit is so wonderful. 🙂 love that this is being done.

  3. Wow (applause)… it’s a long while ago, but I so remember the dreaded checkout negotiation with a trolley full of groceries and two toddlers… all the sweets back then were right within arms reach at the checkout. I once refused to buy an unwrapped chocolate bar one of the kids had grabbed and I think taken a bite out of… Nightmare stuff for parents. Free fruit is a brilliant idea – hope it catches on everywhere.

    My local supermarket also has a Free Fruit for kids bin. but its the only one I’ve spotted thus far. One is better than none!

    It is a nice idea, and certainly beneficial within limits. But fructose is still sugar and should be factored into the overall diet.
