" You don&amp;#x27;t have to be 6 years old to feel fussy about broccoli. I&amp;#x27;ll confess: I&amp;#x27;m a health writer, and I FEEL FUSSY ABOUT BROCCOLI. While eating plenty of fruits and vegetables is key to good health, some health experts say when you can&amp;#x27;t stomach a certain veggie, there&amp;#x27;s likely a perfectly fine fruit equivalent. Here&amp;#x27;s your cheat sheet...**** I loved this piece over at the Diet Blog about fruit swaps for the veggies we may loathe. Here are some suggestions: Carrots: They&amp;#x27;re loaded with vitamin A (good for vision and the immune system), but if you&amp;#x27;re not into munching them, try papaya, mango, or cantaloupe. Tomatoes: You&amp;#x27;ll get lots of the powerful antioxidant lycopene from this veggie (that is actually a fruit), but if you dread them, like my brother does, go for watermelon, red grapefruit or apricots instead. Broccoli: Packed with vitamin C, you can still get a similar dose of nutrition from oranges, strawberries and kiwis. Spinach: Popeye loved it, but you may not. Get similar doses of antioxidants from tangerines, pears and red grapes. (Want to talk your boss into stocking your breakroom with fresh fruit? Here&amp;#x27;s a fun suggestion.) What&amp;#x27;s your least favorite veggie? I pretty much like them all, but lately broccoli hasn&amp;#x27;t been doing it for me. Bring on the kiwi fruit!
