Orange Juice is supposed to be orange?

 The best oranges are generally ugly, lumpy & dirty looking. But if you have a good eye you know that they just need a good wash. Know the difference between dirty ripe & dirty rotten. When in doubt, cut a few open & check before you pay for them. Ask questions, don't assume, don't be shy. Most vendors will appreciate the interest & reward a few kind words.

 Locally grown, organic, tree ripened, Valencia Oranges produce large amounts of rich, sweet orange juice. None of that bitter, pale yellow crap labeled "fresh". We live in California! Oranges thrive in our backyards. Only an idiot would live in California & buy orange juice from Florida. Comical.

 Press directly into glass to preserve optimal flavor & integrity. Drink it or store. Don't let it sit out.

 Store in air tight glass container, with minimal air exposure. Keep pressing until your glass it full to the very top! No reason to shake it until it is time to drink it, let it separate. Oxidation will not only decrease the nutritional value, it will taint your delicious juice with bitterness. If it is not consumed within 24 hours, I no longer consider it fresh. Some would say it has to be enjoyed on the spot to earn the FRESH title. To each their own.

 An amazing little old lady, located in the Thousand Oaks Mall Farmers Market, sold us a full box for $16. At a glance they look like dirty, lumpy leftovers...a quick rinse & a slice will reveal that they are only lumpy because they can barely contain the sweet juice within...half a brain will conclude that the only reason they are dirty looking is because there is no reason for the sweet little old lady to wash her amazing oranges for us, she has nothing to hide. She did all the work collecting, filling & hauling the gigantic boxes, of her amazing oranges. If we don't recognize the gift that people like her are laying at our feet, at an absolute minimal cost, then our children will be deprived of healthy food, once grown with passion & integrity. These good people will cease to exist & we will be left with bland corporate modeled food for profit. It will only taste as good as it has to for you to buy it. Not always bad, just average or synthesized. It will look clean, bright & shiny because that is cheaper for them to fake & they bank on the ignorance of a sucker. 

Ever wonder why "fresh squeezed" orange juice from the grocery store is more yellow than orange?

Why a gallon of bland OJ cost more than a gallon of gasoline?

How come they have to fortify everything with nutrients for it to be "healthy"?

Does it make sense to waste fuel, time & human resources shipping Florida's Orange Juice to be sold across the entire North American continent to California?

So it doesn't taste better to buy it from the store, it's more expensive to buy it from the store, much of it has traveled vast distances & many brands add water.

Technology is meant to compliment our intelligence, not replace it. 

Educate yourself. Know where your food comes from, how it is processed & the true cost of production. 

   

BOB IRONMAN TEST DRIVE

 Our little man is 14 weeks & just under 20 lbs. The standard harness held him in place, with no discomfort. He never complained & there was no need to readjust him during the 7 miles.

 The canopy provides good coverage most of the day but it will not completely block out the sun when traveling directly into the sunset. 

The wheels are road oriented but provide adequate ground clearance & traction for 

most terrains.  

 Suspension was effective enough to allow him to sleep even on rough & uneven terrain.

We cruised, sprinted & romped for hours with nothing but smiles, giggles & naps.

There was enough storage to take care of everyone.

Don't make the mistake of over paying for something that's designed to be used. 

We found ours on Craig's List for $160.00

Great Buy!

Fresh vs Raw: A Brief Insight

Brittany Labbee
Hey mr Kennedy! I was wondering if you could answer a question for me- are frozen fruits better/worse/the same as fresh fruits??

Branden Kennedy That question is not simple & like so many things open to debate. The first thing I'd like to point out is our bodies thrive off of the live enzymes & nutrients provided by fresh fruits & vegetables. But consider that raw & fresh are not synonymous, nor is fresh & nutritious. A "fresh" vegetable that is picked prematurely, so that that it may travel half way around the world, to maintain its "fresh" appearance on your grocery shelf; is often more nutrient depleted than its frozen counterpart, which was harvested in its prime. Some retain their nutrients longer than others, assuming the nutrients were available in the soil & they were allowed to ripen appropriately. In my opinion, the key is to learn to diversify your nutrient sources according to season. When seasonal, locally grown produce is available it is there most nutritious & most delicious. But again, that is subjective to the integrity of the one producing the crop, so I suggest building a relationship with local farmers. Frozen is a great alternative when something is out of season or when convenience is an issue. Certain nutrients are more sensitive than others, hence they are lost in the freezing process but many are well maintained as a result of freezing at maximum potency.
