Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Disappointing. I thought the title meant super-healthy and not sweet-tooth smoothies. This is not a yogurt, frozen berries and peanut butter book and it appears to be all vegan. Do you currently have on hand any dried white mulberry powder, Camu, lucuma or chlorella powder? For sure you must have sea buckthorn juice, time to de stem figs and quarter them not to mention time and money to find, purchase and keep in stock all of the super-ingredients to make these recipes. Me? Not so much. Bought this book thinking it was a resource our kids could use to make a healthy smoothie but instead they thought the majority of the ingredients were ‘suspect.’ Amazon’s Choice has Camu powder $14.99 7oz, Lucuma $14.99, Maqui Berry powder 4oz $11.99....I gave up after that. This book might rather be titled Superexpensivefood Smoothies or maybe Supertimeintensive Smoothies. Once I got through the first 46 pages to the beginning of the recipes I clearly realized how out of touch I am from the younger, skinnier author who looks to be living a dreamy, glamorous LA lifestyle surrounded by savvy ingredients, fresh mangoes, ripe papayas and time to make her own almond ice. I did love one recipe she included for the family dog however this mom of four would be happy just to make 4 plain old fruit and yogurt smoothies with some left for me. So, after much ado about nothing, I’m getting rid of this book to make room for one we will actually use.
