We have all heard of baby carrots and baby spinach. The appeal is understandable; babies are cute. When we think of babies we think of life, of purity, of their cute little soft butts. Subconsciously, we must think that by consuming baby vegetables we are tapping into this purity and tenderness. Baby veggies cost more, are more tender, and are just downright adorable!
Whole Foods is a place I seldom frequented before the juice feast, being a teacher. Okay, and a cheapskate. Everyone has heard the nicknames “Whole Wallet” or “Whole Paycheck” to convey the fact that a trip to Whole Foods can be expensive. When it comes to juice feasting, however, I feel like another nickname could be “Whole Shebang.” The produce department has an extensive selection of organic fruits and veggies, among them: adolescent romaine.
How many of us remember our adolescence with complete fondness? Adolescence is associated with oily skin and pimples, raging hormones and social awkwardness, and (speaking of nicknames) being called the topless walrus. Are you telling me that I am supposed to pay $4.99 to buy into those ideas? My new nickname for Whole Foods: Wholly Ridiculous.
