Superfood Phobia

After waiting in anticipation for my Super Food to arrive. I tore open the box, excited to start my new, higher energy life. I promised myself, even if it tasted like absolute shit, I'd drink it and like it.

Except, I lied.

It tastes horrible! It's awful. It's the punchline to the joke, 'What's grosser than gross?!'

Day One, I decided that Superfood would be a delicious topping on my oatmeal. Mixed with brown sugar, oats and raisins I placed this powdery lawn product, that didn't so much smell bad as just looked like punishment. One first bite later it hit the sink before my stomach even had a chance.

So Day Two, I decided to go with Dr. Schulze 's instructions instead of relying on my own game plane. In my roommates new, fancy blender I mixed a banana, 3 strawberries, 8 oz of apple juice, 8 oz of water and 2 tablespoons of Super De Duper Food. I blended it up, throwing in an icecube for shits and giggles and headed to the bedroom to grab my work bag. Seconds later I return to my concoction to find the Super Food had risen to the top like oil on water!! Oh, how I hesitated.

So I poured this "smoothie" into my coffee mug and CHUGGED. I didn't think about it, I just jumped into the green lagoon head first. Now, mid chug I admit picturing myself repeating this every day for the rest of my life, and in that moment it wasn't that awful. Cause I also pictured it as the reason for my smooth rise and shine each day.

The truth is, I very badly want this to be the miracle worker so many of you claim. And maybe most of you are troopers, and rarely gag in the food portion of Fear Factor. I unfortunately, am a stubborn child, and need someone to sugarcoat my veggies here folks.

Day Three is just hours away. Any advice would be great. Tips. Suggestions. Name calling if you must. I can take it, I just can't take my super food medication :)
