Do people really not eat vegetables/fruit or drink water on a regular basis?

I lived alone for about 5 years, so I'm starting to feel like I was living in a bubble.

A little over a year ago my mom moved in with me and she took over cooking dinner 5/6 nights a week.

It has been a STRUGGLE to get her to include a variety of vegetables on a daily basis. I used to roast a medley of potatoes, carrots, zucchini, bell peppers, onions, asparagus/green beans almost daily as a base for all my meals. And to that I'd add sautéed veg with the main. I also got in the habit of adding 2/3 handfuls of spinach to everything.

I thought this was normal.

I was talking about this with a few coworkers and they admitted that they rarely make more than a single veg as a side for dinner and never really make an effort to include vegetables for lunch, and definitely never add vegetables to their breakfast -- that their meals are typically meat and starch (meat and rice/beans/bread/tortillas).

How often do y'all eat vegetables/fruit?
