Eating meals as a family improves children's eating habits - even if it only happens once or twice a week, UK researchers suggest.
It is recommended children eat five portions of fruit and vegetables per day - about 400g.
The Journal of Epidemiology & Community Health study found those who always ate together achieved this - but those who only did sometimes came close.
Watching parents and siblings eat teaches good habits, experts said.
