I was super excited to try the Medifast smoothies. That's not true. I wasn't really excited at all. I'm not much of a smoothie kinda gal. I would prefer a glass of juice or a bowl of ice cream. Not some weird combination of both.
However, since starting the Medifast program, I have been craving fruit. This is definitely a good problem to have, and Medifast offers a few "fruity" options to get you over the hump. I thought I would try the smoothies to see if they satisfied my cravings.
There are two smoothie flavors: Pineapple Mango and Triple Berry. I was intrigued by the Pineapple Mango as I love tart foods, and thought this would be yummy.
The consensus: I thought both flavors were so-so. I probably won't order again. I did only order one packet of each, so I didn't have my room to play. I blended the Pineapple Mango smoothie with ice, and liked it better than the Triple Berry smoothie, which I only blended with water. Both flavors had a weird diet-y after taste, and neither had the fruity punch I was looking for. I did like that there were actual bits of fruit in each.
I think I'll save these for a rainy day. I have seen some reviews where the smoothies were made into popsicles, or blended with Greek yogurt. These may make a difference!
Enjoy!
