[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This thread is so baffling - there are really people out there thinking fruit is bad and equating it to candy bars??? OP stop giving your poor daughter whatever eating disorder you have. I can't believe people are so uneducated about basic nutrition. Most people add a healthy protein and fat to their smoothie, along with fruit and plenty of leafy greens....so that will not spike your blood sugar.[/quote] It’s even worse than having bizarre ideas about nutrition... they seem to lack a basic understanding of the laws if physics! (I peel an orange - don’t even segment it, mind you - and throw it into the vitamix with some ice, then drink it. The orange pre-Vitamix had fiber, but bow apparently the fiber is gone... please tell me, where did it go? Into the ether?) Have any of these anti-smoothie dum dums ever pureed fruit (or carrots! or sweet potatoes!) for their babies? If so, did they realize at the time that what they were doing was the equivalent of giving their babies a candy bar or a bowl of straight sugar? 🙄 It’s not just that they’re completely wrong that is so irritating and mind-boggling, but that they are so SPECTACULARLY CONFIDENT![/quote]
