Can you persuade people to eat the food you like?

Choose one of the food categories from the list (Crisps, Apples,Cucumber, Chips, Carrots, Cabbage, Peas, Chocolate, Pasta, Curry, Cake) and discuss why you think people should eat this type of food. You must persuade your readers that it will be good for them to eat at least one portion of this food every day. Leave your name after each comment. 

Chocolate: Everyone should eat at least two pieces of chocolate every day, preferably dark chocolate. It is nutritional and it tastes good. There is absolutely nothing in chocolate that is bad for you. It has been proven to increase your intelligence and your energy. It will also help you lose weight and will cleanse your system of all toxins. Since chocolate is one of the major food groups, we should require all school cafeterias to serve it at least three times a week. Sissy Markum

I love red apples so I would eat Jonathan! I think every one should eat an apple a day to keep the doctor away. George
I would have a Braeburn because they taste nice and juicy and they help keep your teeth clean. Jennifer
I like Braeburn apples too. They taste really good and they are very crunchy. Mr Bourton at The Dales Infant School

I like Wealthy because it's shiny and it looks nice to eat. Jasmin at The Dales Infant School.

Don't all of the apples look delicious? Does anyone eat the core as well? I do! My mum used to tell me that if I ate the pips, an apple tree would grow out of my ears! It never did, thank goodness!
