Entry #33: Juicing

Above is a picture of one of the most badass dudes to ever exist: Jack LeLanne. It's unfortunate that he thinks organic food is a scam, but at least he's a strong advocate of juicing and vegetarianism and a strong opponent of processed foods. You know who else rules and was a strong supporter of juicing? Fucking Max Gerson. I'd add the Juiceman to this list, but I'd already be a target of criticism from the mention of Max Gerson by every boring asshole out there who watches Penn and Teller's Bullshit and medical drama shows that should have "bullshit" tacked onto the end of their names. The AMA is probably already contacting the FBI to send somebody out to beat me with a nightstick and flash a Neuralyzer across my face.

Back on topic, juicing rules - but it's a total ripoff if you don't do it yourself. Places that juice, including Robeks, charge somewhere in the area of five dollars for a simple fucking juice with two or three ingredients.
So what do I like to juice? Beets, carrots, celery, peaches, apricots, ginger, chard, and apple - not all necessarily in the same juice. Unfortunately my juicer sucks a lot of rod, so I don't juice too many greens or herbs - otherwise I'd be juicing more spinach, parsley, cilantro, etc.
The best juice I've made so far? Golden beets, carrot, ginger, and apricot. Fucking sunrise; throw some fucking buckwheat pancakes off to the side and it's a breakfast of nutritionally sound asskickers.

Whenever somebody tells me they juice I immediately think more highly of them. Unfortunately I don't have any stories about customers to relate to this topic.
