I have been training for the half marathon and am still pretty low on miles but am tired by the end of the day when I can usually get a run in. To counter this, I decided to go to the cafeteria and get a juice. Well I usually get a "Superfood" juice which is tasty and amazing but it has no protein. Since I was going to have a small sandwich I thought I would swap the juice for a shake. MISTAKE. I should have read the front closer but I was just looking at how great it was and how much it would help me exercise better (all found on the back and in my own head). The front CLEARLY states that it's a "Dairy Protein Shake." This is where the Blahhhhhh comes in. I dont drink milk and havent since I was probably six. I tried drinking it and let out an audible "uggglllhhhh" (make a gagging noise while reading that and you will understand why I chose the letters I did.) I literally tried to force myself to drink the whole thing but I'm about half way done and I think I'm going to throw in the towel. How do adults drink milk without wanting to vomit? It's like drinking ice cream without all the goodness. How does anyone drink a protein shake without holding their nose, swallowing, and immediately shoving sandwich bits in their mouth so they can take away the taste and release their nose? It's making me shudder just typing about it. Nasty-ist (yep, it was so nasty I had to make up a word) thing I have done in a while for sure.
Forget milk protein shakes and bring on a vat of those osteoporosis chocolate chews and a steak. I'm never drinking one of those again.

Yay! A fellow milk-hater!
ReplyDeleteI completely agree with the protein shake issue. But what is an Oreo without a glass of cold milk? Not as good.
ReplyDeleteI would trade you that shake for ANY fruit you desire from Grenada. I can't keep milk fresh here, so I have to buy powdered milk to supplement my chai tea lattes in the morning and make pumpkin muffins...pretty gross. how have you not drank milk that long?
ReplyDeletegrooooooooosssssssss. I love milk, but that particular shake looks disgusting either way. None of those in Athens, promise :) Keep up the good work training!
