21 + 3


Without this juice, Alice would die of malnutrition. It contains 21 vegetables and 3 fruits in, what would have to be, tiny proportions. It tastes awful but babies don't know anything, so she drinks it. Listen to the grossness.


Carrot, some leafy thing, asparagus, capsicum, some other leafy thing, kureson(?), pumpkin, cabbage, broccoli, third leafy thing, beetroot, purple thing, celery, lettuce, hokusai(??), keeru(?), parsley, eggplant, dunno, radish, another sort of cabbage, apple, orange and lemon.


It really hard trying to guess what English word the Japanese are using when it's written in katakana. Anyway, it's terrible, but I've seen many girls drink it on the subway. Maybe it's a diet food.

kureson: watercress
hakusai (not hokusai): chinese cabbage
keeru: barley's young leaves

I don't think it tastes awful.

I recommend this yoghurt to Alice.
It contains 21 vegetables. Yummy!!!

Thanks Kiriko. I thought maybe cress, but why the '-on' at the end? Sounds more like croissant. I'll try the yoghurt if I can find it.
