Thank you series: Fruit, Fruit, Fruit Juice

My hubby and I went to the market last Saturday to buy fruits for our planned diet. This is part of our "serious" desire to lose our winter weight/bulge. Not only are we now getting regular exercise daily we also drink more fruit juice.

Anyway here's what we bought for this week: 20 apples, 10 large carrots, 15 oranges, 20 bananas, 7 corns, 20 large tomatoes, 1 full bowl of cherry tomatoes, 7 stalks of celery, and 1 small bowl of wild berries.

All this for 100RMB (that's 700Pesos or 15USD).

Fruits are just so much cheaper here in Zhongshan, and that's one thing I enjoy! I've been a fan of fresh fruit juice even when I was in Manila. I love drinking them shaked with lots of ice cubes or just juiced/concentrated, but I always have it without sugar. Well, except in Jamba Juice! :)

My fave fruit juice places are:

Jamba Juice (US)
Juice Avenue and Fruit Magic (Philippines)

and

of course our house for my own blends. :)

Sunnysideup finds: Cute Jamba Juice game

Here's a cute and entertaining game from the Jamba Juice site, perfect for kids. They have their version of Pacman, where junk foods are portrayed as villains who zap your energy; and a version of Arkanoid, where they fruits are bonuses and daily activities are shown.

'Jamba Juice Maze Chase.'

'Jamba Juice Functional Breakdown.'

I really am amazed with their marketing tactics in pushing for Jamba Juice by educating the young and old about healthy options. Actually when I visited the US, Jamba Juice became one my favorite daily treats, it was truly delicious and I miss having them. I love Ratzmatazz and Banana-Berry.
