So here I am staring regretfully at the "strawberries wild" I just purchased from the infamous Jamba Juice. Yea, it's a decent flavor. But that's just it, it's decent. I hummed and hawed between strawberries wild and caribbean passion for a good 8 minutes but am now deeply regretting my decision. Too late now. For a moment I considered pulling a satisfaction guarantee slight but that would be a "female dog" move. I have heard of people storming into the grocery store after their roast beef seemed slightly spoiled and they are given a weeks supply of said roast beef to keep them from complaining further. One girl even sent a letter to the M&M company out of frustration because her bag of m&ms didn't have the printed M on her chocolatey morsels and she was given literally a lifetime supply of M&Ms. Companies are so weird.
But none of this solves my Jamba problem. I suppose it's only a fruit smoothie...however I paid 3.72 for this concoction of strawberries, bananas, sherbet, and immunity booster and on a college budget, you don't want that go to to waste. This was supposed to tide me over until tonight when I could munch on my stash of Luna bars and stale bagel crumbs. I'm too scared to delve into my roommate's collection of lettuce and carrots that I swear she grew straight out of her garden hidden by the backside of Craige dorm. I wouldn't want to eat away the hard work she has put into cultivating her lettuce bundles. I'm actually kidding here, she doesn't have a garden behind Craige. But she does fill our fridge with healthy organic food that puts my piles of poptarts and popcorn bags to shame. I envy those with the self discipline to survive on a vegan lifestyle. I would give anything to be able to consume this simple Jamba Juice and tell myself I am eating healthy but I can't even get past this simple task. I know everyone has that friend who is roughly 45 pounds and complains about the HUGE breakfast of half a cup of cheerios. Not cool. I would rather be oblivious to the obnoxious amount of food I inhale each day. Now I sound like such a girl. I eat a lot and I'm proud of it! And yet, the blend of fruits and chemically enhanced sweeteners isn't appetizing right now. Maybe I should stop worrying about food and fill my time with better things to do. Like my annotated bibliography? I think so.
OMGosh…I was struggling with the SAME exact decision today! For lunch, I wasn’t hungry since I had a pretty big breakfast so I decided to treat myself to Jamba Juice for the first time EVER. So many people have told me that the smoothies there are AH-mazing so I had to try it for myself. I was debating between Strawberries Wild and Caribbean Passion as well. BUT I went for Caribbean Passion just because it had more of the fruits that I liked in it….and I really liked it! You should definitely try it next time! My roommate had some strawberry flavor (I don’t know if it’s the same as what you tried), but she said it was pretty good. So maybe it really depends on the person? I really liked Caribbean Passion though. I think 3.72 is a lot for a smoothie…so you definitely have to at least make it worth it, ya know? You live in Craige dorm also? ME TOO. Haha But yea, I can relate with you. I eat SO much. I’ve definitely fallen in love with food even more now that I’m here in college…especially the cookies and ice cream…YUM. But anyways, thumbs up for Caribbean Passion! :)
ReplyDeleteI feel you on the whole taking things back thing. I can never take anything back that isn’t just absolutely screwed up beyond belief. I work at a really nice restaurant when I live at home and some of the stuff that I have seen people send back is ridiculous. For example one time I saw a guy that sent back every course of his 4 course meal back for one reason or another, and they were all the most ridiculous reasons. He actually sent his main course back and said it was not what he ordered. Now, I'm good friends with the girl that was taking his order and he ordered the steak and not the chicken, and she was pissed, and I heard him order the steak. It was her first day and she almost got fired because of this one guy. Something’s that people do are just ridiculous.
ReplyDeleteIf I were you I would return to Jamba Juice immediately (well I guess by the time you read this comment you will have already consumed your delicious treat)...anyways I'd go back to Jamba Juice and throw that strawberry delight right in that guys face and demand a refund. You may also want to bring a friend who could potentially save you from a punch to to the face. In fact if I were you I would demand Jamba Juice deliver a juicer to your dorm room on Craige. That way you can make your own damn Jamba Juice for free and make as much Carribean Passion as you want. Hey maybe then your roommate would appreciate the healthy drink so much that she would share her specialty lettuce and carrots with you every once and awhile. Even better you can bring the juicer to our classroom and we can sip on delicious juice all class while we talk about how bad our research papers are. Hopefully i'll see you a little later tonight for some real Jungle Juice and maybe a little dancing.
