Yesterday, a bunch of frozen fruit, fat-free milk and acai juice to make smoothies. The recipe came from an episode of Good Eats. I gotta start eating breakfast again.

It was late and I was tired and just grabbed everything I needed off the shelf. It wasn't until I was at the register and the total came to $62.41 that I looked and saw the fucking acai juice cost $40. I thought about putting it back, but for some ungodly reason I thought, "you know, for $40, it's probably some damn good shit..."

So I get home and taste it. It's bland with a hint of meaty fruit in the background. It tastes like they need to add sugar. Thinking it must be the some kind of super-health elixir and that's why it's so expensive, I google around. Apparently, grape juice only costs $3 for an even bigger bottle and has just as many anti-oxidants. Anti-oxidants supposing to be the whole thing about acai...

The smoothies aren't spectacular, but I'm a slow riser. They're something easy to eat in the morning when I usually don't feel like eating.
