McDonald's Fruit Smoothies... Are they are real as they claim to be?

I love smoothies and my favorite smoothie (and milkshake) flavor is strawberry bannana. There's this little place I go to twice a week to get one. I actually pay $6 for a small smoothie, but its well worth it....or is it?

McDonald's recently came out with smoothies. They clamed that they have real fruit in them. Yea, we've all heard this before. It's probably fruit juice, not actual fruit right? Wrong! I was shocked when I took that first sip and got a real banana chunk on my tounge. McDonald's fruit smoothies are surprisinly great! This smoothie tastes fresh, and you can really taste fruit. It has plenty of fruit chunks in it. It's not like your just getting one or two chunks here and there.

A small is only $1.99, and it's just about the same size I pay for a $6 smoothie at my favorite smoothie place. I think I'll be saving myself some money, and just getting my smoothies at McDonald's from now on.

Final Recommendations: Awesome! Make sure you try both flavors

Quaker Instant Oatmeal Bakery Favorites: Banana Bread

I love oatmeal! It's a great way to get the day started. Plus, oatmeal is healthy for you. Which is a great added bonus. When I saw that Quaker's Bakery Favorites had banana bread, apple spice, and cinnamon roll flavors. I knew I just had to try it!

This morning, I opened up the box and decided to try the banana bread first. As soon as I opened up the package, I smelled that sweet delicious banana scent. My mouth started to water. I couldn't wait to taste it.  A couple minutes later in the microwave, and it was done. It smelled even more amazing. I dipped my spoon in, and put a big spoonful into my mouth. Unfortunately, I was so disappointed. It tasted nothing like banana's, nor did it taste anything like banana bread. In fact, it tasted very very bland. So I added some sugar, mixed it up a little, and tasted it again. This time is was a little better. I still couldn't taste the banana's though. Which is extremely disappointing, because the smell of banana's was so strong. Next time, I think I will try it with actual banana's in it. Then it might be a little better.

Final recommendations: Save your money!
