Drinking a cabbage smoothie. With cranberries and ginger. I will live forever at this point.

1. I choose early death over a cabbage smoothie.

[applegrove]

2. LOL! Oh I added hot sauce and worchestershire sauce. It isn't so bad.

[rug]

4. I'm glad you liked it.

I look forward to hearing about it more than tasting it.

[LumosMaxima]

3. +1

I love cabbage, but . . . no.

[IrishAyes]

15. You just don't know what tastes good! I love anything with cabbage.

[Joe Shlabotnik]

5. This will not end well.

[applegrove]

7. Oh and there were a few brussel sprouts and some broccoli in there.

indeed. But I did had two slices of ginger. That fights intestinal gases. Perhaps there will be a war in my intestines tonight.

[Incitatus]

6. No, you won't.

Not without the kale.

[applegrove]

8. There was a tiny bit of kale in there I promise.

9. needs some kudzu

10. I did keep some frozen peas when I was cleaning out my freezer to freeze vegetables. I have not

ventured there yet. Don't know that I'll ever have the guts to put them in the blender.

11. You won't live forever, it'll just seem like it.

[applegrove]

12. LOL! DUZY

[TheMightyFavog]

13. Either that or sit on the toilet forever.

22. After blowing a hole in the wall

from the built up gas.

14. I feel very lucky. As a 'financially embarassed' person, I truly love cabbage soup. Throw in a few

tomatoes and whatever else ya got, good eatin'. Even worse, I love cabbage soup plain so long as you don't skimp on the spices.

16. There was a study on why so many Nova Scotians lived to be 100. They suspected the cabbage

that was such a part of the german heritage diet.

[IrishAyes]

17. Well, my bloodline as you might guess is not Nova Scotian, but many of us live to be 100. We also

eat potatoes made a dozen different ways but not drowned in toppings or sauces. There was a guy somewhere in Western Europe a long time ago who ate nothing but potatoes for a year. At the last he was healthier than before.

19. I'm convinced my grandfather lived to be 97 because of garlic and onions

He started smoking at age 11 and never stopped. He chained smoked non-filter cigarettes his whole life. He drank...a lot...mostly rye and coke. He ate tons of fatty foods (all the good Ukrainian stuff - perogies, ham sausage, cream sauce, cabbage rolls, with some pork chops slathered in butter & garlic thrown in...) as an adult until he split from my grandmother and he yoyo'd between fat and obese until his last decade when he adopted a steady diet of Dare's cinnamon swirls, except for breakfast and snacks:

He ate garlic and onion sandwiches for breakfast nearly every day (oddly enough, he never smelled bad. I think the cigarette smoke and booze canceled out the garlic and onions). His entire garden was garlic and onions (oh and a bit of dill for his pickles, LOL). He'd snack on raw green onions dipped in salt. He'd eat bulb onions like apples or chew on a raw garlic clove just because.

Despite many health issues due to smoking (reduced circulation that cost him a leg at age 77) he lived, with his mind intact, until age 97. Considering his lifestyle, I'd say he did pretty good.

18. A cabbage smoothie isn't complete

without a few sugarless Gummi bears added to the mix

20. can i just soak them in vodka and drink that?

minus the cabbage

[seaglass]

21. You have my admiration. I bought some strawberry-banana V8 Fusion and it is disgusting,

I can't get past the aftertaste of vegetables in my mouth - blechh.

Cannot imagine drinking cabbage juice even with a bunch of stuff mixed in. I'm sure it is very healthy but I'd rather have a salad.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

23. That sounds absolutely horrible.
