March 26 Am Taste Test

Good morning. Let’s bring out our concoction and we made this morning. Here we go. Let’s go over the detail or the ingredients real fast in case anyone forgot or didn’t watch the other videos. We have a beat. We have a carrot. We have a red Apple at green Apple. We have a Mellon, uh, uh, a LA some, something like that from Honduras. Uh, I think I said carrots. Carrots. Yes. So there’s a part of the reason this isn’t a full glass is I miscalculated how much I need to put in here. So, and there’s the sweet potato. Let’s try to take off of our foam. You see, we got a little bit, a little bit more on this side, but it’s not, it’s not too shabby. Although we also don’t have a full cup either. So in regards to the, now it’s quite a lot more, alright. The beet gives us the flavor And I forgot to take the picture.

Um, before I drank this. So there will be a picture of, I will stop this video with a little bit left and drink it. So let’s give it a shot. Let’s see how this tastes. I am a little nervous. Beet is cool, but it’s also not. And I also know if you’re going to do this with beats, you have to understand this. Your bowels are going to be changing colors when you pee, it’s going to come out a little bit like this. And when your poop is going to come out a little bit like this, don’t worry. It’s normal. It’s the beat. The beat is very, very powerful. This is surprisingly good. Yeah. After part isn’t quite as good as it going down, but going down is, is when it first goes into your stomach, like into your mouth. There’s just a cluster of flavor, which is it’s good. It’s really good, actually.

Cool.

I taste the Mellon like that’s of everything that I taste. I taste the don’t get me lying. The melon from Honduras, right? The OMA, something from Mike’s melons. I enjoy that. I I’m not gonna lie. I, before I mushed it all up into the juicer, I took a small little, little spoon and tried it and I thought it was absolutely disgusting. So for it to, I also don’t like melons. I can’t, I don’t like any type of melon, honeydew, watermelon, cantaloupe. No, I don’t like the flavor of behind it. I think it’s gross. Like when you go to the hotel and then when you go to a fancy hotel, they got the fruit for breakfast and they got the orange fruit, the green fruit, the watermelon, no, I’ll eat. I’ll eat a piece of pineapple and that’s about it. Right? Other than that, no, it’s just not, not for me. However, in this, the melon juice is giving this a sweetness that the beat, the beat has a distinct type of sweetness because it’s not really dry or not really like bitter, there’s a beat, but the melons complementing the beet flavor. If that makes sense.

Yeah. Is he in my teeth already?

That’s the beat. So just know after you drink this juice, everything is going to be beat color for a little bit. So don’t get nervous. Don’t get frustrated. Don’t go out of all out of whack. It’s normal. But though again, we’re the only thing that, that I’m getting at or that my, my most consistent complaint that I’ve had is the temperature. All the juices that I’ve had thus far, I have more or less been room temperature. Now, if they’ve been, if we could lower the temperature, every drink that I have, that I, I make amazing. Amazing. So maybe, maybe I shouldn’t just drink them right after. So for you, if I’m not sure it might cause I’m drinking all this by myself. I’m not really sharing it. And, um, uh, this is, it’s a one in one and done type of drink. I’m not going to go back and drink this later. But if you were to have maybe two or three friends, this was this with some ice and then just port for everybody, maybe with breakfast or lunch or something, it’d be beautiful. It’s just needs to be cooler. That’s it? The taste and everything is great. It’s not bad at all. The Mellon, no Mellon, whatever type of melon it is. You will have to look at the other video or read the other article and you can figure out what it is. I forgot what it was.

Yeah.

There is sweet potato in here. Now I’m not going to full disclosure. The after flavor is not the greatest going down all the way into about right, right. About here. Great. It’s the last little bit that tastes like dirt and I’m thinking that’s the beat. Um, so yeah, uh, just be prepared for the last little part taste like dirt, but 99% of this is great. It’s just that last 1%. It tastes like crap, but nonetheless, it’s good. You know, what would be good in here? I gotta try some pineapple.

Let me see With a pineapple juice in there. That’d be, that’d be great. You notice, I didn’t say strawberries, which I usually say strawberries, but some pineapple, some pineapple in there would be good that this is really surprisingly good. It’s it’s not as liquidy as water. It has a thicker consistency. So I think it’ll hold me over a little bit longer.

Yeah, through the whole juicing thing. I don’t know how you could use to not eat food. Yeah. I would be starving. Um, I mean, if you have reserves, right? If you’re overweight or you’re, you’re, you know, bigger person then yes, most definitely do this and juice yourself down to a normal weight. But if you don’t have any like reserves out a little bit of reserves, I, I just, I, I couldn’t do it. My body wasn’t able to maintain it. Plus I’m also burning a lot of calories by running for 30 minutes and riding a bike for an hour every day. However, I’m gonna take one more nice little swig. We’re going to discuss the flavor one last time. And then I’m sorry for me talking like this, like, this is not helpful for anyone you can’t see me. I’m extremely sorry for playing. Um, I’m sorry for playing with my face. That’s rude and it doesn’t do you any justice? Cause especially when I’m playing with it right here, it’s right in front of the camera. You can’t see what’s going on. Anyways. One last swig. Then I got to take my picture.

Again, very, very, very shocking how sweet this is. Like, it’s almost like a candy. It’s so sweet again, that little, the last 1% isn’t the greatest, but 99% of this tastes like S like straight up sugar. Like I went to the store, I grew up, I had some sugar and I dumped it into this cup. That’s what it tastes like. I, and you, if you watch me, you know, there’s not any sugar in here. However, there is a large sugar flavor in here. So hopefully I’m not being counterproductive and amping myself with more sugar than I had by just drinking regular sugar. But, uh, we’ll figure that out. And we’ll see, as we continuously go through this progress through this journey, all right. Talk to you guys later and hope you enjoy the picture.

Well, the run, the run wasn’t wasn’t very good. I will say that I did run three miles, but I ran it at at five. So it took me 36 minutes, but you know, I still ran three miles, so that’s really all that matters. Um, I think I have turned, turned a corner though. The, the workout part is much easier, then I would have expected, um,

It doesn’t ache anymore. Like not like a, has never really ached, but let me, uh, let me see if I can articulate what I’m trying to say before. It was more of a struggle, like kind of a struggle tiredness after now. It’s more of a building tiredness after if that makes sense. So are my muscles tired? Yeah, but they’re not tired. Like, uh, they have been in the past, right? They’re they’re tired. Yes. But they’re, it’s like they’re growing tired. Right. I feel, and they feel good, tired. So which, which is good. Cause, um, like I said, what it’s been about two weeks since we raised the weight and it’s feeling better, not worse. Like, um, like, especially cause my cardio’s not, not getting any better. It’s kind of staying stagnant, but my arms, you know, and my stomach and my chest is getting bigger, which is always nice.

Right. So as long as I keep progressing, right? Not every day, are you going to have be perfect, but as long as we study progress, as long as we study move forward, that’s all we can really ask for. Right. So that’s the main thing that I’m trying to do is just steady, steady, move forward, steady progress. And in this life and in what we’re doing, excuse me. Um, yeah. Uh, I don’t really have too much to say at the very moment. Um, just keep going. Uh, I take a shower and my nose feels like I’m about to sneeze. So that’s what I’m kind of slowly talking, trying to avoid the sneeze. All right. So just keep going, uh, progress kind of the same thing every day. Today’s like I said, today was a little bit better. Um, when it comes to working out, uh, again, we still have the end of this week and then then one more week.

And then in the beginning of April, we’re start kind of moving up. We’re just trying to get our, our body’s accustomed to where we are, try to conquer that minimum of 5.5. If we can, if not, you know, as long then a, we gotta run every day because we’re going to run three miles every single day. So if it takes us 30 minutes, then good. A that’s great. If it takes us 36 minutes, then Hey, that’s great. We’re still going to run three miles every single day. So just cause we’re running at a slower speed doesn’t mean that we’re running a smaller distance, right? So I need that to be, need that to go through each and every one of your guys’ head, just because we’re running at a slower distance, like at a slower speed that does not give you the right to look, to run a shorter distance. Right? So our distance is three miles right now. And if you have to walk the three miles and it takes you 20 minutes to walk a mile, so, well then you’re going to be on that treadmill for an hour. Right? Our goal is three miles. So don’t let anything stop you three miles every single day.

All right. Talk to you later.

So that was a good day. Um, the, the actual, like workout part of it’s getting easier and easier, um, yeah. That part’s getting super easy, which is good, which is, I mean, that’s amazing. I don’t have a like larger set. I only have 27th and then I have sixties and I’m nowhere near sixties right now. So I’m going to have to plan on buying, um, some weights to increase the weight, but I’ll probably just buy over the bar and some sideways so I can increase my weight, however I want. And then also use the plates for other parts of the workout. I will let you know once I do that. So just bear with me and I’ll let you know, um, the run run was, it was challenging in the beginning. It was, it was really challenging in the beginning. Um, but then once I started getting into it, I, uh, maybe about four or five minutes in, I, I was like, you know what, Eric, you got to get to 5.5, at least try.

So I did, I increased the speed from five to 5.5 and then ran the entire time at 5.5, which is an increase. It’s not a lot, but it’s still an increase and, uh, how I was able to do it. So I ran three miles in 32 minutes. I’m still walking backwards. So that’s, I need to work on that. I’m being lazy there. Um, but whatever, still maintaining about 20 miles within, you know, plus, or minus two minutes on the bike, it really depends. Sometimes. Like if I’m in something that’s good, then like I’m watching a show, a program that’s really good. Um, then it goes, then I’m faster. Right. But if I’m watching something that’s interesting, but not really interesting. I’ve noticed I slowed down like, uh, my speeds is slows down and it’s, it’s, it’s much more, uh, of a challenge to ride the bike.

Uh, but you know, that’s, that’s, that’s typical, right? When you’re having fun, you don’t realize time, but when you’re bored or you’re watching the clock time goes by, uh, it’s almost like time doesn’t even go by. It’s almost like it it’s, it feels like it stands still. So for me to say, watching a good program time goes by faster. Just makes perfect sense. And it’s the same thing when I’m running as well. So when you’re doing this, it’s, it’s very imperative. You find something good to watch on, on the, I tend to try and I don’t listen to music, right? I, well, that’s a lie the morning times don’t listen to music. It’s always an educational program. Something I’m learning the afternoon. It’s when I’m running. It really is case by case, depending on the motivation right now. Um, I’m really into, uh, listening to just the motivational. I mean, YouTube motivation on YouTube, and that’s kind of where I’m at,

Uh, like

Never quit or challenge yourself or whatever, you know, something, something cheesy, but it works got kind of music in the background, a whole bunch of people with different pictures. So it’s picture stimulating. And then when the people are talking, I kind of just focus down to the ground. If they’re saying, if it’s something that I like, but if it’s something that’s boring, then I usually, I just find something that I enjoy. And those are usually anywhere from a 10 to 20 minutes, which is good. Cause I’m only trying to run 30 minutes. So I might watch a trashy TV for a few minutes. What I mean by trashy TV is like what? Michael Jordan spent his billion dollars on, right. Or the top 10 biggest houses, trash TV. I’m not learning anything when I watch that, but it’s entertaining it. And you know, those are about anywhere from five to 10 minutes.

So I’ll pop one of those on, and then I’ll watch my motivation. Uh, I need to start, um, going back to school on the run, like really, truly just focus on educational programs. Um, uh, if you remember, probably about a month ago, I was watching the ClickFunnels like funnel Fridays, but then they got monotonous really fast. So watch two of them. It’s like, you’ve watched them all. It’s kind of the same concept over and over again. It’s actually, there’s 50 something, maybe even more like 80. And somehow I ended up watching the same one that I’d already watched before. And then I looked again and I tried for a different one and it was another one that I’ve watched before. So either the Google algorithm or the YouTube algorithms not working very well or the funnel Fridays is difficult to find. So I’m not going to continuously watch the same thing over and over and over and over again.

And they’re kind of monotonous. Like I said, they it’s more or less talk, talk, talk, talk, talk, talk, build something kind of talk, talk, talk, talk, talk, talk, and then they’re done. Right? So it doesn’t, it’s not the greatest of programs it’s, it’s entertaining kind of, uh, I would like to see more, more of the work behind not like set the program up, like, cause just having the front page, does it just building a lead page? So you’re not really building the funnel, you’re just building the lead page and it’s it’s different. But again, if there was more of a more, if I didn’t keep watching the same one, uh, or YouTube, didn’t keep throwing the same basic one in front of me. Maybe I’d be more interested, but however, I’m going on a tangent, uh, I’m not even sweating anymore. Right. So we’re gonna cut the camera on. Now I’m gonna take shower and stay motivated.

March 16 Fitness

Excuse me today. It was a weird day. It really was, uh, the entire time on the treadmill.

If I were to stop right at the end of the treadmill and made this video, I would have been saying today was a terrible day. It was extremely difficult. I was out of breath majority of the time. It’s just, my body was just blah. Right. It was, it was, I was just tired all day. Right. It was the truth. Nothing was feeling good about myself. Right. I was heavy. Had a lot of phlegm in my throat. I mean, I must have spit a hundred times. I’m just trying to like, even right now, my mouth is, it doesn’t even feel like it’s, it’s dry. It just feels like it’s one big, uh, phlegm ball. That’s just sticky. Right?

So

That was difficult. I’m not going to lie. I broke my rule. All right. We’re at so far, I’m not very good at it. Right. It’s supposed to keep 5.5. Well, I tried at 5.7 and my body wasn’t having it. I was just dying and everything. So I was like, you know what?

We just have to stay on a mill. So we stayed on the treadmill at five. Did I end up going three miles on that treadmill today? Yes, I did. So I made the three miles, but I did not, uh, uphold what I was supposed to and run at least 5.5. But as long as I make three miles. Okay. Cause we’ll consistently day by day. Get better, little by little, right? So it’s a journey or it’s a marathon, not a sprint. So with that being said, at that point in time, if you had talked to me, I would have been like, man, I’m dead, tired is terrible. But then something weird happened. I was working out or doing the second half a little workout and it was pretty easy.

Like what?

Like, wait a minute. I thought you said you were extremely tired. Yeah, I was. So that’s why I’m surprised just as, as much as, as anyone else I’m dead tired. Barely can make it 30 minutes and then do the workout. And it’s probably the easiest it’s been.

Yeah.

I mean it shocked the hell out of me as well. Right? Like how am I, how’s the way easier today on a day that I was tired and was basically convincing myself on a second by second basis to keep going. Not a minute by minute basis. Cause I was, I was clock watching today. Um, thank God I had something that was nine. I was watching a video that was nine step video or something like that, uh, by David Goggins, uh, linked to his, his book or whatever. Um, yeah, so I had no desire or, or I’m glad I was listening to him his little, because it was 21 minutes and it was, it was him going through nine different steps. So my reasoning behind picking that was, I won’t be curious on here number five, six, seven, eight, nine. So as long as I can make it through like four or five, then my curiosity will kill the cat.

Right. And I’ll kill the, the tiredness. So that’s, that’s what I ended up doing. That’s what got me through it. But yeah, after, I mean, I ended up doing more curls, more pushups, you know, not a whole bunch more, just like, well, two more. Right. I didn’t have my, why am I a superhuman now? Uh, my Superman, but whatever. Right. Still did it. And uh, I felt good. So I, my body’s tightening it up. I think we’ll still kind of on schedule. Uh, we need to add another set. I know blah-blah-blah we need to add another step before the end of this month. So April we can start adding, uh, another depart or kinda like the legs. We’ll just do like led curls. It’ll be easy, no squats yet. So it would literally take us maybe five or not even five minutes. We might have to listen to two songs opposed to just one after the treadmill. Right. Cause if you really think about it now, I want you to also think about this for all the people that have excuses. Right. I think I’ve talked about this before for all the people that have excuses that they can’t do something. Excuse me. I have something in my eye.

Aye.

You know the song she dropped up bomb on me, baby. [inaudible] it’s by the gap band I’m I’m well, that’s what the YouTube videos, as you know, I was able to do both sets during that song and drink a water. So I was able to do a set walk over to my, my desk, drink a little bottle of water, come back, you know, shake my arms out a little bit and do my second set, put the weights down, get myself prepared to do pushups and then did pushups. And the song ended on pushup number five. So if you do not have time to work out, please look in the mirror and just say, I’m a liar. Say it just like that. I’m a liar because there is no possible way that you cannot find, I think it’s fours four minutes. So it’s not even the 10 minutes. It’s four minutes. And I’ve been able to do two sets and drink water. If you cannot find four minutes in your day, you need to look in the mirror and say, I’m a liar. And we’re going to leave at that.

March 18 Morning Ingredients

Good morning. It’s about seven 45 in the morning. I’ve already done my hour long bike ride. Some sit ups, a couple of pushups, done, little, little housecleaning work well on the internet. Now it’s time to drink juice. Get the day started. Um, put a little ginger in here too today in the morning time. Uh, I did get my juicer last night where we’ll try to play with that later might like to citrus juicer. Um, we’ll try to play with that later on today. Again, we are using the Mueller brand, uh, juicer this morning. We’re going to be using some grapes, low key. We that’s a sweet potato, our ginger, our carrot and other half of our watermelon. Let’s go into our trusty book And see what types of vegetables we’re going to be giving ourselves this morning.

That’s the sweet potato right there. Um, w now we’ll go to the fruit again. We don’t have ginger. We’re using the green juicing recipe book. I will be having my book pretty soon. Uh, got us finished working on a couple things. Um, let’s go water. Oh yeah, there is no watermelon in this book. That’s that’s another reason why I was sitting here or why I’m saying I need to do the book because the ginger and the watermelon won’t tell us any good nutrients. However, we know that both of those have nutrients. Let’s go to the Kiwi, vitamin C K and E full, late potassium. Anti-inflammation respiratory health, digestive health immunity, boost, eye health, blood pressure regulation. All right. So, Oh, Oh, it’s morning time. I’m going to put another one in here.

The Apple we are going to be using. We are going to be using, I think

This is a red delicious or red. Delicious. Excuse me. All right. So what I’m going to do, I’m going to cut the sweet potato, get the carrots prepared, uh, seed the Apple, kind of get the, this prepared. And I will see you back to show you how much juice comes out of each one of these particular artifacts or articles, whatever you want to call it. Pieces of vegetable or fruit.

March 19 Morning Ingredients

Good morning. What we are going to be juicing today is that kind of look a little bit grapes, a red Apple, some celery, a beat I’m really doing the seller and the beat. Cause you can see the leaves are starting to die on me. So I’m thinking a few more days and there’ll be all the way dead yesterday. I enjoyed the sweet potato. So I think we might just add a sweet potato almost every morning. I enjoyed sweet. It’s good. Got a little carrot. And we got a little strawberry and of course we have our ginger. Now let’s go over to our trusty book,

The green Juicing recipe book, which is available on Amazon. Just let me know. All right, let’s go where we are.

Where are we going?

I don’t know if you guys can hear the wind, but it’s, it’s blowing pretty strong outside. All right. Let’s start with our fruit. So we’ve got great Apple cantaloupe, strawberry. So Apple, which is our red Apple vitamin C potassium. Quercitin heart health, weight loss, and cancer prevention. Now what? See cantaloupe.

Well, we don’t have it yet. I need to do this.

Eventually get to my book. Give me a minute where I just, I write out all the things that they don’t have in this book. So let’s go grapes, birth, Vitamin C and K potassium, cancer prevention, blood pressure regulation, chronic disease prevention.

That’s what those groups are doing for you. Now, remember we did not have the Mellon or the cantaloupe. Uh, we had, uh, the Apple, we had the grapes. Then here we go. We got strawberry vitamin C manganese, full late heart health, blood sugar, blue skews, me, sorry, blood sugar control and cancer prevention. Now let’s go over to our vegetables. This is our beautiful celery right here, which you can, or what puts vitamin C or K C N a full late potassium, digestive health anti-inflammation cholesterol, health, blood pressure regulation, and skin health. That’s what the celery does. Let’s check out this beautiful beat right here gives us full late magnesium potassium, blood pressure regulation, heart health, digestive health, and brain health. So right there, uh, again, trying to get my brain stimulated in the morning. So hopefully the beat will with that bloody water will help us. Uh, if this is your first video, the beat basically is going to change. The color of everything is going to become beat red beat. Right? All right. We got carrots, vitamin a C N B six, potassium I health skin health and cancer prevention. And what do we got? We’ve got the ginger, which we do not have yet. And we have the sweet potato

Vitamins, a and B and magnesium potassium like justice, health immunity, boost, and lung health. So like normal or over the last few days, what I’ve been doing is, uh, preparing the vegetables to go into our Mueller juicer. And just because it’s, I only have one hand, so it’s much easier to prepare everything and then grind it up for you with, and be able to film everything. So we will be back in just a second. Okay.

March 19 Morning Juicing Process

All right. So here is our vegetables and fruit cut up. We’ve got our sweet potatoes. We’ll do that first. Then we’ll do our beets, which are right here. Then we’ll do our celery, our cantaloupe, our apples, our ginger, our grapes, our carrots. But first let’s start with our sweet potato. I did them in like kind of French fries today, opposed to the circulars, like yesterday, just to see if they cry, but if they cut better, [inaudible] most of our sweet potato. This is all we have left. We’ll pop that in there with our beets. Oh, I lied. There’s another small little fee’s gone right there. Uh, I don’t know if we’re supposed to throw the, the grass in there. [inaudible]

yeah, very much beat that time. It wasn’t as large as a beat, but you’ll see how it pretty much takes over the color of the drink. Now we will go. Um, really doesn’t matter what we, what we kind of grind up next. We’ll we’ll just kind of throw some things in there. We’ll go. Strawberries. You saw, I just throw a little bit of the little ginger in there. The ginger isn’t really going to make a difference, but it gives it a little bit of a, a small taste. that was a decent amount of [inaudible]. I didn’t know that I’m going to jump all over, but my apologies, I guess I really do have to stop it. We’re going to do an apples. Well, lost a soldier. Not picking it up, dude. I assume some of this, some carrot [inaudible] no, obviously the character at warrants. All right. And that’s all she wrote. That’s all the best find you. We, we lost half an Apple, but that’s okay. I’m not going to pick it up and put it in here. That’s going to go to the trash and there we go for our morning drink. I will see you in just a minute. Once we drink it and we have our little discussion.

March 17 Morning Juicing Process

I want to make a quick bonus video so you can kind of see how disappointing this machine is at times. So I filled in my blackberries. You can see them down there. There’s my raspberries, my grapes. So that you would think that would give us a decent amount of juice. Since literally, if you were to just munch, all those berries, you, you would be able to fill up a nice cup, but let’s see what happens. And then, then I’m going to show you the cucumber and you’re going to be like, what? Yeah,

All those berries gave us that much juice. It looks like it. The juice is just splattered all over the place. So this is what frustrates me with this machine because I really could’ve just mushed them all myself, and probably got more. Now let’s take the cucumber now again, We’ll Watch the spicket kind of like a, like a hose and make sure I got, there you go like a hose.

you see what I’m saying?

Now? That is a big difference on the managers. Look how much juice is there now? Right? So, When I talk about things, that’s, that’s more or less when I’m talking about, um,

Yeah. Then just bear with me, the apples out there have to do on a different time, but, and then I’m going to show you, this is the color greens. So we’re going to stuff, this whole thing. Bear with me. If the camera’s juggling around, I apologize. So we’re going to stop this whole thing. Now, this is gonna cause you know, lettuce, c’mon, there’s nothing in let’s call a greens, but water, right? At least in theory because the lettuce, at least when you’re cutting it like this, I don’t think it does very well. But when you’re doing the lettuce, right, a lettuce gives you a lot, but this is kind of disappointed.

So those are our collard greens. Um, yeah. I’m going to show you. I can do it. Where’d I put my knife around here somewhere. There it goes. So when you’re doing an Apple, right? Yeah. Cut it in half and then kind of dig the seeds out. Mind you, this is

Here. Water is right there. Hopefully you guys can see me. I just need two hands to dig this out

Real quick. Just kind of take the pit out. So you have no scenes, you, same thing with the pear.

All right. Hopefully that wasn’t that bad of a video with doing that. Now let me show you that apples. So this is our red Apple

But that was pretty disappointing. You kind of get what I’m saying. It’s kinda like the vegetables. Give you more water than the fruit. All right. Talk to you later. We’ll see you in a second. When I drink the juice.

Welcome back. Got our morning juice. What do we got? We got watermelon. Sweet potato. Just in case you forget. I tend to forget. So don’t worry if you did, man. I already forgot watermelon. Sweet potato carrot, Apple, a little bit of grapes and some ginger. I think that’s it. I might be something else in there. Ana watch the other video Gives a nice little stir. Let me, let me see.

See, good.

So the smell smells like a dirt because the sweet potato, ah, man, that’s what I forgot to put it in here or rutabaga or know a beat, a beat. That’s what I’m supposed to be. Cause my beat is going old. I had three, so I got to do that for lunch or when I I’m going to try to, uh, create another energy drink today since I got the cold air correct equipment where it doesn’t taste like the orange peel. Right. So I’m quite excited about this because, uh, I was spending too much money on energy drinks for trying not to have energy drinks. If that makes sense. All right.

I am however, a little nervous about this one. I don’t know why. I don’t know. I think it’s, I think it has a hundred percent to do with the color. All right. Cause the wa it’s mostly watermelon and watermelon. Sweet. Well, sweet potato is actually not the bat, but watermelon is mostly watermelon. I can’t lie. It’s pretty good. I can taste the ginger. Um, also I put the ginger on at the very top, so very last. So that could be part of the reason I taste a lot of large ginger just cause I probably just drink ginger, but uh, taken, uh, the shell off of the watermelon so far so good. That was a good idea. Um, it’s actually, it’s a pretty refreshing drink, right? So maybe not like the four morning time for my purpose. It’s perfect. Right. But let me try again. Yeah, yeah. This is a, put a couple of ice cubes in there. You could put the little, the little umbrella in there. This is more like a tropical drink. Right. Which is really weird since, since there’s nothing really tropical in here. And if you want to consider a watermelon tropical. Okay. But you know, sweet potato and carrot and some ginger, um, doesn’t scream top tropical to me. However this drink. It’s the perfect sweetness. I guess I’m going to try again. Hold on.

Yeah. Yeah. That’s a winner.

That is a winner right there. You guys gotta try this one. I mean maybe you guys won’t like it. It has that little tardiness that I was talking about before. Last time I had a sweet potato, but in a, like, this is really it’s. This is, this is, let me try again. There you go. This is sweet. Like the natural sugars of things.

Let me try something.

And a lot of it has to do with the watermelon. Honestly, truthfully I, majority of this has to do with the watermelon. I don’t know if you all remember or if you watch the other video, but a lot of Jews came out of that watermelon and the carrots, the carrots are always, the carrots always get me in for the carrots because in my mind, I don’t think of carrots as being sweet, but when you’re drinking the juice, they’re really sweet. I guess that’s why they have carrot cake. Right? Cause carrot carrots are surprisingly sweet. Right? Would have no, I, if you were to just show me a carrot there, no idea. Um, I’m in a process of doing about four different little projects. But if I, once I get to it, this is probably may right. It’s we’re in March right now. So I’m just going to be fully, completely honest. We’re top we’re talking. Excuse me. We’re probably talking. May-ish when I’m going to get around to creating my major, major book around this. So it’s going to be hundreds of different recipes. There’ll be every recipe that I’ve made thus far and then going in better depth of, um, the vegetables. Because if you’ve noticed the book I’ve had, if you’ve watched some of the other parts or even watched the beginning of this, um,

It’s very generic. I guess it’s not made for IX like exotic fruit. It’s not, it’s very basic, right? I wanna, I’m one of those types of people, like there’s like a hundred different types of apples. You can’t tell me each Apple is the same. Right? I don’t believe it. Some apples are tart. Some apples are sweet. So I want to understand the difference. Okay. So if the difference of each Apple, so if I’m in this situation, I need to eat the green Apple. If I’m in this situation over here, I need to eat the, the red delicious or whatever. And then look at how many different types of, of, of cucumbers are or there’s different sizes. There’s different like flavors. There’s the pickling cucumbers. There’s the salad cucumbers. There’s the Persian cucumbers. There’s the little D the, the, the, the bumpy crew cumber. So each one of these cucumbers, it has to be a little bit different, right?

So I want to go in full depth. This is what, this is the part that’s going to take forever. Now, you know, come with these drinks and the recipes, that’s going to be easier. And I might, that’d be my beat, just be one book in and of itself. And then I’m Eric Johnson version of vegetables. Cause if I really get into it, then I’m gonna like try to do a full in depth project process and probably be a whole book off of it. And just go over each, each cucumber, this cucumber, this could be, I’m sorry. I’m, I’m going off into my book a little bit too much. And I know it’s a tangent. I apologize. You’re probably like Eric to shut up, drink the juice. So I’m gonna shut up and drink Some juice.

Yeah. Yeah. This is surprisingly good. It really is. Um, my concern is what some of this stuff is really thick. All right. So that’s just my stir stick.

All right. So here’s the knife.

Um, I’m also having problems with, uh, my sink and I got to figure out what I want to do with throwing away all this waste. Um, cause it’s not really waste. So what we’re going to do, I’m probably, if I get my tractor back and about a week, got a John Deere. Um, no, before April. So we got two weeks, excuse me. So in about two weeks, I’ll have my, my tractor back. And then what I’m going to do is that this might be really stupid. It might be the best thing since sliced bread. I’m a plow up a little plot, cause I’m gonna have my garden. Like you usually do. And I’m going to start taking these clippings of, or like the grind, the ground up stuff that from the juicer. And I’m going to use that as fertilizer, right? I’m going to try to get off of miracle grow and all this other stuff. Cause I don’t believe in it. Um, it’s not that I don’t believe in it. Let me get it wrong. I don’t want as many chemicals in my body as there are. Right. I don’t trust.

Okay.

All the different chemicals. We don’t know how, what that would do to us in 20, 30 years. So I don’t trust it quite as much and I want to go real, truly organic. I mean, how organic can you go when you’re, if your fertilizer is mushed up vegetables and I, I w if I was fishing, I’d put fish hex and the, excuse me, fish heads there, but I don’t. So I won’t, and we’re at 10 minutes. So I’m going to drink this real quick and contact camera. The rest is that foam. So we’re going to leave it right there again. It was great. Um, see if you can see at the bottom, Uh, I don’t know if you can see there’s, it’s kind of whitish down there. It’s and that’s what I mean by with the sweet potato is kind of starchy. I know it looks like I left a lot, but you go ahead and drink it if you want to, but that’s all that creamy foam. It’s not the greatest. I’ll throw it away. See you later cut the camera.

March 17 Afternoon Taste Testing

All right. Welcome back. There we go with our juice. Remember we just drank or a lot of this is a watermelon or like the little mini Mellon let’s get the stir on. No, I really truly was not trying to have this much. I honestly, I have no desire to drink this much of a vegetable juice. However, the watermelon, uh, is basically half of this. Hopefully, like I said, hope fully. Um, I didn’t screw it all up. When, when I was mushing up the skin of the watermelon. Now, if the skin of the watermelon tastes anything like the skin of a, an orange or a lemon, then this is probably going to be really disgusting. But if it, if it doesn’t then it’s probably not that bad Smells kinda like, um, dirt

It tastes a lot better than it smells a lot better. It has that, um, I can taste the ginger or it has the ginger spice, but I can also kind of taste the pepper as well. Um, I do wonder how the mixing of the vegetables, like which ones you do first affects the flavor, because as you see, when, if you watch the last video, which was, I mean, I apologize. Cause it was horrendous of where I was mushing everything up or, you know, whatever, grinding, everything up, whatever you want to call it. Um, you’ll see, like there’s a distinct, um, distinct different layers to each vegetable. Each one that you, you put down or you grind up, they won’t even when you then like it’s, what’s kinda cool. Cause you, you start seeing them shift and there’s different colors, obviously.

 okay.

So I don’t know if you saw the size of the ginger. I put it in this time. It was a, about this size. It was, um, about the size a little bit bigger than a Hershey’s kiss. All right. Which that was that’s decent size. Aye. Aye. Any smaller than that, it’s a waste. You don’t taste it, but about that size, it gives it, uh, the aroma at least one. Yeah, it has the aroma of a ginger and then it also kind of gives that gingery kind of burn. If that makes sense. Uh, in the drink, the pepper, I’m not tasting the pepper as much as I did the first time. I think the Ginger’s over a little bit overbearing and it’s taking over the flavor of the, of the pepper. However, um, I could be wrong. I could be, it could be just complimenting it perfectly and that’s, what’s giving it that extra spice. Right.

I mean, I really can’t complain. It has that. It has the ginger flavor. That’s that’s really nice. Um, watermelon does not have that. Citrus-y tangy tart D uh, flavor, like the peel. I don’t taste the peel at all.

Excuse me. Um, no, I really don’t taste it. Um, this is it’s a lot. Mind you I’m drinking a lot of vegetables. She’s right now. I w I don’t know if I already mentioned it. I’m not trying to have this much vegetable juice, um, at every city. Cause it’s, it’s a little excessive because I already drink a good amount of water throughout the day. So this is it’s bloating my stomach up. Um, however, and if it’s gross, then like having to drink the whole liter of it’s terrible, but you know, I half a liter then it’s like, all right, I got to do it. I got him drinking, but it’s, but it’s not that this, uh, I know what F like lettuce, so it’s crazy. Obviously watermelon was going to give us a lot it’s waters, literally in what it’s called watermelon. But did you, if you got to watch another video, but bok choy, bok choy gives a lot. And then, uh, on another video I’m going to show is squat or squash squash, and it gives it like, it’s this, it’s also kind of cool to see what, what color drink I’m going to be drinking. Cause the top, you can’t really see top of this, but it’s, and, um, I’ll end up spilling all over the place, but the top is orange, like a carrot. And then in between it it’s a dark or a dark green, uh,

I don’t want to say vomit green because I don’t want anyone to vomit, but it has a different color green. It’s not money green. It’s not forest green is kind of like in between, it was kind of yellowish orange screen. I felt the pepper on that one. Woo.

Yeah, yeah. That peppers in there. And I think that’s exactly what it is, is, um, the ginger and the pepper are complimenting each other because wow. It wasn’t, it wasn’t, it was just shocking. Right. I can still feel it right here. Um, maybe whatever I, maybe I, I drank, uh, one of the little seeds, you know, you know how it gets crushed up. Seeds are sometimes a little bit more potent than the rest of the pepper, but I mean, I’m not going to say that it was bad. I can’t say whatever flavor, you know, I just had was terrible. It was just unexpected.

Okay.

Is he, I don’t know if you pay attention. That’s fine. I was expecting the unexpected that go around and I expected nothing and I got nothing, a little disappointing, but whatever

It had to have been that one that’s, it’s really weird. Let me show you where I’m at. It had to been that one, that one, uh, goal really, truly cause I’m going to use seen after, and it didn’t choke me up or any of that. So it was, I must have really just drank a seed or something. I’m not sure I was weird. Cause I, like I said, I can, I can taste the ginger. Right. It’s not overbearing. But that one, that one sip that I had was wow, I was overbearing, but what I took sips before, nothing and I’ve taken sips after nothing. So it was just, uh, an outlier and, and I not moly. I shouldn’t have ate, I had a little bit to eat before I did this, which is kind of forcing me to struggle to get this down just because I wasn’t on an empty stomach. So it wasn’t like starving. So it’s like, again, having a drink, an entire leader of this is, uh, it’s feeling. It really is. It’s feeling it’ll fill you up. I mean, especially if you had a little bit to eat before this. Yeah. This is a lot.

Okay. I was doing breathing funny for a reason. I wasn’t like hyperventilating or anything. I was trying to like breathe in fast to see if I could get more of the flavor and I could, that’s why I said, okay, I could taste the ginger a little bit better. Um, Yeah, I got one more good sip of this Sydney and then I’m going to cut the camera. Uh, just cause I’m, I am full and I’m not going to just keep stuffing myself, um, for a video.

It’s a good mix. Talk to you later.
