I really loved my SP Extreme. They are really nice while they are alive.

Very good smoothifying today Pear Blueberries Frozen honeydew melon Kale 1/2 Nectarine Rice Milk

Nice scooter Steve, it doesn't look very gay though. Maybe a more colorful paint job would do the trick.

I made the worst smoothy ever (trying to create a V8 like drink): 2 small tomatoes 1 celery stalk 1 leaf of kale 1 carrot Sriracha sauce Worsteshire sauce some water Talk about gagging, I had to dump most of it. I guess that it why they put a whole lot of salt in V8 and a much larger ratio of tomatoes to the other stuff. I'll stick with the sweetish smoothies for now.

Looks great, hope it works just as well!

Approved!

Headed to the beach for a little R&R

WTF

It's pretty nice here, high of 87 today.

That is so awesome!

Wow!

Drooling, want.

Great but someone is really starting to piss me off.

It's good when bacon tastes like bacon.

The Wire Season 5 Espisode 4 - damn.

Nice!

Wow!

I did. I cannot resist the Mysore Nuggets.

I bought some beets to put in the Vitamix (I love them!). If anyone has blended them, what size pieces should I cut them into before blending.

This, except I ordered yesterday so I don't even have the 2 lbs yet. Ugh.

Thanks for the advice. I'll pick up some apples. I usually don't eat them raw because they are a bit boring but they are probably good in a smoothie. Did a little better today, more green, less brown, thinner, sweeter and smoother. It was very good! I love the peanut butter and bananas together! The peanut butter cleaned up very nicely with the usual cleaning procedure (although I didn't use much and tried to keep it from touching the container before blending. 1 banana 4 strawberries 1 leaf of kale scoop of peanut butter Rice milk

The Vitamix is no longer virgin. 2 carrots 8 cherries 1/2 nectarine 1 campari tomato 1 leaf of kale a few dashes of Sriracha 1 little water to thin it Tim tasted it and said yuck and then afterwards said that he had trouble not gagging towards the end. I guess that means he didn't like it. I thought it tasted quite healthy.

Good idea. I also read that you should either clean it out with bleach/water or vinegar/water solution once a month (on high for 30-60s). This seems like a good idea. I have recently gotten into cleaning with vinegar and washing fruit with vinegar, it's great.

How difficult is it to clean the Vitamix after making a smoothie with peanut butter in it? I have read some complaints about peanut butter sticking to the bottom and sides but maybe that was only when making peanut butter. Also, have you ever had to take apart the blade assembly to properly clean the vitamix? I notice, in the manual, it says to take apart the blade assembly "if any solid residue remains" after cleaning. But then, it also says to only remove the blade assembly if absolutely necessary. So I am guessing this is something I probably won't have to do (I am hoping to not have to take it apart to clean ever).
