We wasted our money on a Magic Bullet (my wife insisted we get once because her mom used hers to make smoothies) so we are without a real blender.
If I want to blend something I either have to use our Magic Bullet (which is almost useless) or our food processor (which is tiny).
Needless to say I hope I win this...

AT, thanks so much for offering this as a holiday giveaway! I love Vitamix already & I don't even own 1! After friends' raves & in-store demos w/ samples ... who wouldn't?!
view lifeabundant's profile
This item is out of reach ($) for so many who want to start a raw diet, or who want to try some raw or vegan in their diet. It's the best, no doubt. I tried a kale/mint/pear smoothie a friend made in her Vitamix. Excellent, and my own blender could never do the job. Raw Boutenkos recommend only Vitamix, I think.
view avianmission's profile
p.s. environmentally, the vitamix makes up for its electricity use in meals delivered without heat. It's an amazing machine. Would love to have one.

I think that this would be an awful way to make scrambled eggs...somehow I just don't think they'd cook, without which they wouldn't really scramble...but if the first guy who left that comment really wants to try it, I won't get in his way.
Personally, I'd rather make some awesome fruit blends, margaritas, etc...but hey - to each his own, right?

I had a vita mix back in the 80s and it was fantastic. I did quite a lot of things with it, including grinding up wheatberries and making bread dough from the whole wheat they produced. I made my own orange juice concentrate from organic oranges with part of the rind. It's long gone and I can't afford a new one. I really would love to win this one (as I know many others here would too).
