Try it to stop the browning of fruits that do, due to oxygen. So I slice up apples and pour straight pineapple juice over them and put them in those glass storage containers with snap lids. Two weeks and apples did not brown. Wonder if I could do this with this smoothie.

I do sooo love them, picked up a half dozen or so many years ago from The Container Store, back when it was only in Dallas. I use them for everything from portion control for smoothies (a perfect one cup) to little bits of salad dressing to bacon grease to ... you get the picture. <br /><br />I learned from <a href="http://www.davidlebovitz.com/2010/06/jars/" rel="nofollow">David Lebovitz</a> that Americans now call these French "working" jars.

I always have some for soaked oat muffins or waffles, so why not? Usually I just pour a generous splash of the kids' lemonade into the pile of 3 + 3 (veg and fruit servings). I can tell you that without 'real' lemon (though there is citric acid in the pink powder stuff) the spinach smoothies don't turn brown per se, just a bit less vibrant. What I've found is that letting the rest of my smoothie sit in the fridge means that the foamy part seems to settle down and I get more liquid to drink. If I use cooked veg (beets or sweet potato) in my smoothies they don't foam at all, but greens make mine foamy. Maybe due to the stems? I just throw the whole thing into the Vitamix.kirstennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11944565.post-81701750502757738572012-05-31T15:42:52.709-05:002012-05-31T15:42:52.709-05:00I had no idea!
