dad: i've decided to start each day with a nice, healthy smoothie!
mom: y'know, just because you render something in a blender and call it a smoothie doesn't magically make it healthy!
Ok, had to try it. Pluck out the marshmallows, use vanilla Silk instead of milk. A few ice cubes to keep it cold. Blend, then stir the marshmallows back in. Nothing I’d make again, but it IS palatable…nope.
I prefer the old fashioned smoothies we had growing up: vanilla, chocolate, or coffee ice cream with milk, and Hershey’s chocolate syrup. Sometimes we’d add malt powder.
My mother-in-law makes an excellent smoothie with almond milk, banana, frozen fruit, protein powder and something else (I forget what). She made me one once and it took me about 4 hours to drink it, it was so filling.
My mother got us sick on those instant breakfast drinks; we got sick and tired of chewing those clumps that we always found at the bottom of the glass of milk.

A Lucky Charms smoothie? Yuck. I’ll go with a muesli or Basic 4 smoothie.

Milkshakes, the original smoothies.

Personally I thought those instant breakfast drinks had a certain tang………
