| - Stumbled into Luna's thinking this was a place I could get a "regular" burger. NOT!! This place is totally vegan, organic & raw. I was starving that day. Obviously, my hunger-induced eyes only read the "Kitchen" and not "Living" part of the sign on the building since I totally didn't realize this was a healthy food joint until I was at the counter.
Quite annoyed, I decided to grab something to go since I was there. Admittedly, I'm slightly curious about how the vegans do it without meat. Because I have very limited knowledge about vegan food, I asked for a recommendation and the counter lady talked me into trying one of their juices. She was so helpful & knowledgeable about the products. Though I appreciated her advice, the whole time I was chatting with her my thoughts were - Yea right lady, there's no way a "juice" is going to do it for me no matter how "green & great" it is . - I was very hungry that day. After my brief education session, she rang up my "juice" purchase. Geez! For $9.50 a pop I thought it had better be good. Still not convinced I reasoned, worst case I could use the "green juice" to wash down the burger I had planned to go get upon leaving
The one I bought was an organic, cold-pressed juice called "My Daily Salad". I opened it immediately once I got into my car since I was SO hungry. Surprisingly folks that stuff packs a punch!! I was caught off guard by how good it was. It was packed with the right blend of veggies and other ingredients to be both flavorful and filling. Not only was it was delicious & smooth, but substantial enough so that I was no longer hungry. These could easily be a meal replacement to assist with health issues, weight goals, etc. Or, if you're like me and guilty of skipping meals from time to time, these are an option. Additionally, it gave me a natural, energy boost and I was not hungry until dinnertime.
That day, I ended up driving right past the burger spot with a big ole, healthy, green smile on my face. I had done something good for my health that day and I was proud. I'll be going back for more of those juices. I'm a huge fan already!
Thanks Luna for saving me a few cholesterol points that day!!
