Berry Green Smoothie

As a low cost option to all the green berry smoothie mixes and meals, here is a suggestion that cost less than half as much, uses fresh ingredients, provides much more nutrition and tastes much better. Of course you don't have to limit yourself to just strawberries and blueberries. Try pineapple, grapes or any in season fruit that you have in your home or at your office. To give it a milkshake consistency, throw in a couple of ice cubes. It helps to have a blender, but other than that you can have a different of green-fruit smoothie every day for much less cost and much more nutrition and more variety than with the plastic tub and foil packet ready-made products.

Plastic bottles are not only environmentally unsustainable, they cannot provide the protection of an oxygen-free environment to prevent loss of nutrients. Oxygen and humidity can easily pass through plastic and deteriorate the product. Green foods packaged in plastic bottles slowly lose their green color and can become moldy and cake up in humid conditions.

@ccindie That's right. A container filled with that much air and humidity requires a larger plastic tub than one of our full glass bottles. When customers see that big plastic tub, they think they are getting more product. Yet, when you compare the net weight of a the big plastic tub with our glass bottle, they are about equal. It "looks" like you are getting more product with the big tub. Instead, you get about the same weight, but the food in the plastic tub is oxidized and devitalized.

1/2 to 2/3 full leaves too much room for air and humidity !
