Going Bananas

Even superheroes have their weaknesses.  My personal kryptonite comes in three different forms, all of which can be difficult to avoid.  For the common man, these substances do not pose any real threat and can actually be quite beneficial.  But for this superman superwoman hulk, they are deadly.  So just what are these dangerous substances, you ask?  Carrots, peanuts, and worst of all, bananas!  These poisons have the power to make me go from this...


to this...
Pretty scary, right?  Trust me, allergic reactions are no fun.  And seeing as how I have absolutely no desire to kill myself or to make my face blow up the size of a bowling ball, I would never put any of things that I am allergic to in my juice.  (Although I hear carrots are excellent for juicing).  Yet, for some odd reason every batch of juice I have made so far tastes just like bananas.  I've combined different ingredients.  Thrown in more lemon and ginger for flavor.  Juiced more veggies.  Fewer veggies.  One apple. Two apples.  No matter what the result is the same.  It tastes like freaking bananas!  Maybe I'm just going nuts... Oh crap, I'm allergic to those too!

  1. Update: For juice that does NOT taste like bananas, use one green apple, one stalk of celery, 1/2 inch of fresh ginger, and a butt load (yes, that is a technical term) of KALE!
