Those who know me know that I’m not a big fruits and vegetables kind of guy. I know that I should eat more, but I definitely struggle eating the balanced diet that I should. I really am more of a meat and potatoes kind of guy.
As I was running around Costco today, lunching on all the free samples, I ran onto a product called Voots. They are little chewable tablets, each of which they claim to contain 12 fruits and vegetables along with all the vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and flavonoids. This is fantastic!
They claim to taste like candy. I tried a sample and they don’t taste too bad. I could eat these and never eat another fruit or vegetable again…woo hoo!
Then again, I could try Vitameatavegamin and eliminate meat also…heh.

It was at Costco so it can’t be a scam right?

Do the chewy tablets taste of an odd mix of chemical fruit and I’m going on a limb here, extract of vegetable? Mmm, sounds tasty in the way only such a product can deliver.

Voots, yeah, i’ve been using them at home for a couple of months now. checked with our physician, these are the real deal. made from real fruits & veggies, not chemicals. i have eaten them (along with my littel ones), after buying them at walmart. they were created by a guy and his wife, for their kids. good stuff! give em a break, for trying to solve a BIG parental problem – removing the guilt of our kids not always eating healthy as we want them to.

“Do you pop out at parties, are you unpoopular?”
I hadn’t seen the Vitameatavegamin clip before, that’s just a classic, thanks Bryan. Too funny.

I love the third kid with the red plaid shirt. Can’t wait to get me some flavanoids.
Seriously, though, it’s not *that* difficult to get kids to eat their veg. Parents just need to take advantage of the naturally elevated levels of imagination in kids’ minds. My parents tried that, and I ate my broccoli every night while imagining I was a dinosaur.

Me too. Though if I had tried what he did, I would be in the hospital right now.

If you take a swig of Vitameatavegamin you don’t care where you are.

An excellent point. Pour me up a glass!
