the magic bullet infomercial. on, every night, super late, on some channel, without fail.
i have some beef with this product.
first of all, the people annoy me. i still watch it, b/c the idea of a machine being able to work like this is interesting. but then you look closer.
the cup is tiny. to fit crap in it, you need to either buy everything small (like pearl onions or cherry tomatoes) OR CHOP things small enough (like chicken, cheese, whatever). so you have to use a stupid knife anyway. but in the infomercial, everything is already prepped, so they just toss it in the cup. this is how they get you.
then, the ice. most blenders can't handle ice cubes. seriously, can you realllllly believe this stupid piece of crap can do it? so i'm like wow, okay, it can blend ice. or i'm assuming it is really blending it. then i look closer at the ice. its already partly crushed, like what you get from a fridge with a crushed ice dispenser. well no wonder it "works". even though MOST ppl will try to use regular ice cubes. which won't work. stupid.
the juicer. so you throw in all that fruit and all those veggies, and you get...about 2 ounces of juice. i seriously doubt this is a quality FREE add-on. bitches. get a real juicer if you really don't like your vegetables.
blender. yeah, right. just a bigger chamber that is just as useless as the smaller one. meant only for smoothies...in that big a chamber, trying to chop stuff would mean things would never touch the blades at the bottom. its like a crappy blender you buy for $20 at target.
plus, the food they show. everything is ready to go. like the pasta, its already boiled and laid out. so the meal isn't REALLY a 5 second meal, since the pasta would take at least 10 min. and the quesadilla that came out the microwave was BROWNED. you can't brown a tortilla in the microwave. try it. it won't work.
oh. and the guy in it was in casper, that movie with christina ricci, and he was a fool in that. therefore, how can i take him seriously while he's making guacamole on tv??
AND, if they're willling to throw in a WHOLE extra system, they're just giving that shit away. for reals.
if any of you have wasted the $99 & s&h, let me know what you think of this shoddy product.
