I'm in the market for a new blender/juicer.
My regular blender broke last year. I replaced it with an inexpensive Cuisinart - just a basic blender. I haven't even used it yet.
Looking forward, I'm going to be having dental implant surgery in June. A soft diet is required for a long time, especially since it's a front tooth. Puleez! kill me now! I'm fairly down in the dumps about it. Could it get any worse?
The past summer I signed up for a market box from our local farm, which was a great thing to do. Got us eating healthier and more varied. I just signed up again for this upcoming season but, I'm worried about how I'm going to incorporate much of it. Corn on the cob? NOT happening!
I know the blender I bought won't do the trick so I'm debating about just sucking up the purchase of a Vitamex. I found out you can get them refurbished direct from the company which shaves off a lot of money but they are still very, very expensive. Plus, I'm not even sure a juicer is what I need or want. I have no intention of becoming one of those pro-juice people; I enjoy them but it is not a replacement for food you chew. For me it will be the best way to get a lot of nutrition into me easily which may be more difficult otherwise.
Does anyone use these? Any recommendations? Blender or juicer? All tips welcome!
