Cited in Scopus: 2Dietary patterns that include fruits and vegetables (F/V) greatly reduce chronic disease risk, but 90% of all adults in the United States do not consume enough F/V.1 Further, long-standing systemic inequities that produce multiple barriers have contributed to low F/V intake (F/VI) among individuals who report low-income or belong to a racial and/or ethnic minority group.2–5 Subsequently, these populations are less likely to meet recommended levels of F/VI and tend to have higher rates of food insecurity, or a lack of ability to access safe, nutritious, and affordable food.
