The Fruit & Veggie Song

I’m a carrot, I’m one crispy vegetable,
for salads or eating on the run!
Shred me or dice me, or make me julienne!
Steam me, sauté me — just let the fun begin!
Cause I’m a carrot, a crispy carrot!

I’m a potato, that’s po-TAY-to, OR po-tawh-to,
and we all grow right underneath the soil.
I love it when you bake me, you can roast me, too!
Guess what? We come in colors: brown, red and blue!
Yes, I’m a potato, the all-purpose perfect potato!

I’m a pepper, I come in many colors
And I spice up ... a salad or a stew.
Some say that I’m picanté and make a salsa hot,
Some tell me that I’m mild and sweet and flavor up a sauce!
Cause I’m a pepper, one perky pepper!

I’m a banana, I come ready-to-eat.
And you can bring me ... to school or to the beach.
No need for preparation, just take me as I am!
And I can be so sweet, more than any other can!
Cause I’m a banana, a beautiful banana!

I’m an apple — I’m not a pomme de terre,
a juicy apple, a fruit beyond compare!
I’m known as “Mac” or “Granny Smith,” “Washington State,” too.
You’ll find me tangy, sour, sweet — just try me when I’m new!
Yes, I’m an apple, an adorable apple!

We’re fruits and veggies, and what a job we’ve got
just as we are ... or you can throw us in a pot!
We’ll do our best to help you grow strong and healthy, too!
All you have to do is choose us — and that’s up to you!
We’re fruits and veggies — “5-A-Day” fruits and veggies!
