Do you own a Juicer?

  Wow... I hadn't realized that 'Champion' juicers were still made.

  When I was a kid, my mom had a Champion juicer... the commercial model. This juicer was huge! I remember that she kept it cleaned and 'bagged' in storage most of the time. When she got it out... was usually after she had bought a 50 pound bag of carrots (and smaller quantities of other veggies).

  Then we'd spend a good afternoon 'juicin carrots'. She would have to stop about two or three times and clean out the strainer inside the juicer, as it would get clogged.

  We'd get a lot of quart jars of juice - which she'd keep most, and give away some - to friends - no charge.

  After the juicing was complete, we'd then spend another 30 minutes or so cleaning up the juicer, and then put it back in storage.

  Regards,

  I bought a Jack Lalanne power juicer and I used it a couple of times, but not enough to see any real benefit. I found the cleanup takes too long.

  Since it is my goal to be "apostate" in all things, I shunned the juicer in favor of a variable speed Vita-Mix, the primary reason being that a juicer retains all that yummy and beneficial insoluble fiber roughage. The Vita-Mix whacks everything down to sub atomic particle size, and gulping down a big glass of plasma REALLY jump-starts the day!

  OK - kidding about the sub atomic plasma, but it does pulverize everything that gets in its way, even, for example, strawberry seeds, which then make the antioxidants within available to your digestive system.

  This vita mix is about 210 horsepower, with dual carbs and a supercharger. It screams! The neighbors are afraid of it!

  Nourish the soul and polute the environment all at the same time. What can be better than that?

  Chalk juice I would imagine would be like drinking sheet rock mud. I'm sure to the JW nothing would be more satisfying than a tall glass of chalk juice while petting lions and talking to blueberries.

  ooooooook am going off it already, 3 apples chopped small enough to fit down a very small chute and produce a small cup of applejuice ,didnt take too long,

  dismantling, cleaning and getting the goo out and getting the little blade and strainer thing clean a friggin lot longer!

  the super sonic liquidiser that pisses off the neighbours sounds a whole lot easier.
