well that would be nice, but being the last ingredient on a long list does not the same as "mode with". I've seen other products that pull the same adding trace amounts of monk fruit after large amounts of different sugars.

Yes, adding trace amounts of monk fruit does not transform this into a “health” drink.

Who are they trying to fool?

I doubt their typical followers will even glance at the list of trashy ingredients.

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.

This is definite UN "Becoming"! The Obama's are millionaires since he left office and this is just greed and tacky.

LOL - so says the person who is fine with Trump hawking one failed scam or product after another -

Trump University
Trump Vodka (he supposedly doesn't drink)
Trump Steaks
Trump Magazine
Trump Airlines
and... ugly, gaudy, overpriced golden sneakers



Seriously, you people are in no place whatsoever to be judging Michelle Obama. None.

But nobody ever suggested that he was classy.

Nor is he selling his wares to the EBT/SNAP population. That’s real grift: get the folks on public benefits buying your franken slop.

Wasn’t Michelle just at the DNC blabbing about how she was raised by her mom to distrust greedy people who ‘take too much’? Pot meet kettle. Guess they need another $10 million mansion to add to the portfolio. Or maybe they’re yacht shopping.

I think maybe just boredom and searching for a new purpose post-presidency. She's talked extensively of trying to figure out what it's like to be a normal person. Maybe her selling a drink is her version of Michael Jordan becoming a baseball player.

She hasn’t worked a day in her life for 25 plus years. Google the fake job she was set up with at UChicago Medicine.

+1 it’s the absolute pinnacle of hypocrisy and greed.

She can consult Zelenskyy and company about that.

We’ve taken one for the team and tried a new flavor almost every day this week. They are all gross. The flavor, texture, consistency, aftertaste, all gross.

Don’t take my word for it- buy it yourself and try it. I dare you.

Of course it would! Now, how many people do you know —including kids — who only drink plain water when they’re thirsty?

Mine? Or sometimes OJ. Why is that so hard to believe that many kids have no desire for this fake crap?
DP

It’s not hard to believe. It’s also not hard to believe that lots of kids drink sodas and juice and slurpies and Gatorade-types of drinks quite frequently. If SOME of those kids consistently replace SOME of those drinks with something somewhat healthier, I’d count that as progress. For the kids who prefer and drink water, that’s great. This product is not for them.

Bullshit.

Replacing crap with another type of crap. This is full of sugar.

What's crap is barging around in this thread spreading crap. It has far less sugar than soda, juice, slurpies and gatorade. You don't know what you're talking about.

DP. Curious why you're defending this sugary drink marketed to kids. Could it be because your idol, Michelle Obama, is the one doing the hawking?

You're weird. I'm curious why you think this is somehow as sugary and unhealthy as the soda and other crap marketed to kids. You just sound weird, hateful and like you're trying too hard.

“Weird”? For questioning why a former First Lady is now hawking surgery crap at Costco? THAT’S the weird part. Try and keep up.

Are you the twit who keeps saying it's "sugary" and somehow every bit as bad as every other drink marketed to kids?

Do you know how to read nutrition labels?

Plezi 5g sugar
versus
Coke 25g sugar
Mott's Apple juice 28g sugar
Capri Sun 14g sugar
Country Time Lemonade 16g sugar
Sunny Delight 20g sugar

Do you know how to do the math to understand that it contains far less (25-30%) as much sugar as most of the regular alternatives?

Do you not know that monkfruit and stevia are natural extracts from fruit, have zero calories, do not affect blood sugar, and that are medically and scientifically considered to be much safer and healthier compared to chemically synthesized artificial sweeteners like aspartame and sucralose?

Or are you just coming at this from the angle of "No, ze cheeldren must only be allowed to drink vater, like ve do in home country?"

Be honest, it's bound to be one of the two, either you don't actually understand nutrition, or you are out of touch with the realities of what kids are drinking. Either that or you are trying way too hard to find fault. Either way, you're weird and cringe.

DP. Talk about trying way too hard… cringe, indeed. And “weird” is tired and overplayed.

Sorry, but anyone who can’t look at her appearance, selling crap at Costco, and remember that she is a former First Lady, has deep issues. If this Melania had set up a stall to hawk crap at Costco, you’d be having a field day mocking her. Get a clue.

It's likely a MAGA who hates the thought of a wealthy famous black person daring to make even more while they turn a blind eye to everything Trump hawks.

OMG. Play that race card, amirite? Grow the hell up.

The thread about such an event involving Melania would be several hundred pages deep by now.

Can you even imagine? But somehow we’re supposed to watch reverently as MO sells trash while looking trashy. Mmkay.

The thread about Ivanka’s Holiday card in which dcum accused her of being trashy and wearing a nightgown was a barn burner of a thread. Yet Michelle looking like she just rolled out of bed and threw on some sweat pants without even combing her hair to sell her new juice/fizzy water line at a random Costco is muted and unconcerned about the situation.

Gross, no thanks. But I appreciate your efforts to spare the rest of us!
