A friend of mine from Canada gave me 2 packs of Raw
Greens Meal Saeng-Shik. After sitting in my pantry for over 1 year, I
decided it was time to try it. The package recommends mixing with water and
drinking a 1-2 times a day. If you’d like to substitute this for a meal, you
can mix it with a banana.
Product description:
Raw Greens were developed from the simple belief that we
should consume wholesome foods in their natural states without cooking or
artificially modifying them. This way, we can be sure that we are getting the
best source of nutrients in a way that our bodies can use them. GMF (God-Made
Food) uses a freeze-drying method to conserve the original raw natural state of
enzymes, vitamins, minerals, chlorophyll, fibrin and all other nutritious
ingredients.

My opinion – it tasted like grassy chalk on ice. It smelled like dirt, almost like a barn but not quite as bad. I'm getting the heebie jeebies just thinking about it.
At first I tried mixing it with water & ice in my magic
bullet. Nasty. How could my Magic Bullet betray me like this?
Next I tried fixing it by adding some frozen berries. Ewwwww. Still
nasty.
Then I tried adding more water and some plain Greek yogurt. Yup,
still nasty. So, so bad.
This was still gross, powdery and bland, but I drank it anyways.I was hungry again in about an hour. #failure lol.
I don’t know if I’m cut out for this kind of drink but, hey, at least I finally tried it.
I have had real green
juice and I actually like it a lot. I think I"ll just stick to the fresh stuff!
Do you own a juicer? Can you recommend any very healthy breakfast mixes that will keep me full and do not taste like abso*f-ing*lutely terrible??
