Dear Sproutman :: From Mixed Up

DEAR SPROUTMAN: I want to start fasting but I don’t have a vegetable juicer. Why can’t I use my blender instead? – MIXED UP

DEAR MIXED UP: Your head must be spinning! Blenders go around and so do juicers, but there’s where the difference ends. Juicers separate the water from fruit and vegetables and then discard the pulp. Blenders liquify the food pulp, water, and all. A pound of carrots gets juiced into a glass of pure, easy to digest carrot juice. But a pound of blended carrots still provides a pound of carrots. Remember: blenders puree, juicers extract. I hope this smoothies things out.
