Michelle Obama surprised crowds at Costco when she was spotted giving a sales pitch for her new healthy drink, Plezi Fizz, at a Costco in Livermore, CA. A TikTok video posted on Tuesday showed the former first lady standing in front of a stockpile of the drinks that were launched in March. Have you tried her new drink? I have never even heard of it.

| Can't wait to try it. Hopefully it is better than LaCroix or the Wegman's brand. |
| I saw that and looked it up. It's made with monk fruit so "better" for you than soda. That being said I hate the whole celebrity consumerist trend encouraging needless spending and useless products. |
| I'll give it a try, but that's a very dumb name. |
| The drink doesn’t meet the nutritional standards she forced American schools to adopt via her Healthy, Hunger free kids food program. Hmmmmmm. |

To be fair, she wasn't making bank on that as she is on this. |
Of course…when it’s time to make money, standards? Huh? Oh, you mean my money? That’s the standard. |
| I don't like that she's doing this, unless the $ goes to charity. |

Here’s her page on the site talking about Plezi. |

Looked at the products. It's just apple juice mostly with other flavors and some fake sweeteners.
Garbage, like all fruit juice is. Fructose is one of the worst sugars to eat, straight to fat and fatty liver. The only "healthy" claim they have is it doesn't have HFCS. Big woop. "Now will a little less bad stuff for you!" |
PLEZi contains the following ingredients: Soluble vegetable fiber 2 grams of soluble vegetable fiber per bottle, which comes from corn. Fiber helps with digestion, makes you feel full longer, and can help with constipation. Apple juice with corn fiber. Yum. |

Wtf. She’s never really hawked commercial products and she starts with…..this?
Was this a favor for a friend? |
"Soluble vegetable fiber" is sketchy vague sounding, as that could include recycled wood pulp. Soylent Brown? |
They have at least four 8-figure estate mansions and a doomsday bunker to pay for. Property taxes are skyrocketing. |
