Meet the Froogies
Everyone starts with Apple Crisp. The more fruits and veggies you eat, the more Froogie friends you unlock!
Each Froogie has a Special Twist
Make sure you're keeping track to find out what it is!

You'll also need to stay on the lookout for Sly the Fly, who appears if you haven't visited your Froogie in a while. Click on Sly to swat him away and keep tracking.
Remember that old saying “an apple a day keeps the doctor away”? Crunchy and munchy, apples make a great snack. They’re full of fibre and vitamin C for a healthy gut and immune system. One apple counts as a serving of fruit in Froogie.
Cabbage, spinach, kale, chard and bok choy are all examples of dark leafy greens. These are the nutritional powerhouse veggies – good sources of vitamins, iron and cancer-fighting chemicals called phytonutrients. One cup of raw leafy greens counts as a serving in Froogie.
Watermelon Slurp is one cool Froogie! Sweet and juicy, a slice of watermelon is a refreshing snack any day! A half cup of watermelon counts as a serving in Froogie, and delivers vitamins A, B6 and C, potassium and lycopene, all important for overall health.
Radishes are a member of the cruciferous family like broccoli and cabbage, delivering a nutritional punch in small packaging. Containing fibre, vitamins and minerals that boost our immune system, they taste great raw in salads or cooked in stews or casseroles. Half a cup counts as a serving in Froogie.
Corn on the cob is a summer staple for outdoor eating. But this sunshine vegetable can be cooked in soups, stews and eaten in salads. Sweet corn is full of cancer-protective vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. It is also one of the best sources of fibre for healthy digestion. One ear of corn counts as a serving in Froogie.
Like little trees on your plate, broccoli florets are a good source of vitamins C, A and K, folate, calcium, fibre and antioxidants. Eat broccoli raw or cooked, or serve as a snack with hummus dip. Half a cup counts as a serving in Froogie.
Not just for rabbits, carrots have long been credited with helping us see in the dark. This is not just a myth – beta-carotene is found in carrots and is good for eye health. Carrots also contain fibre, vitamins and minerals. Raw or cooked, one large carrot counts as a serving in Froogie.
A relatively new kid on the block, the dragon fruit is so-called because the red skin has green scales that resemble a dragon. The taste has been likened to a less sweet cross between a pear and a kiwi. Like other fruits, this little beauty has lots of vitamins, minerals and antioxidants to keep us in good health. Half a cup counts as a serving for Froogie.
The opposite of chilly, these feisty, spicy peppers are usually only eaten in small amounts. But their milder bell pepper relatives are a great source of vitamin C and other important vitamins and minerals for health. Half a regular pepper counts as a serving in Froogie.
