Let’s be real, I'm not always in the mood to eat my vegetables but smoothies... im always in the mood for a damn smoothie that’s for certain. Before you knock this, try it. I used to hate 'green' smoothies because most of the ones I've had tasted too green. You know when it just taste like grass? Yeah no, I gotchu baby.
