Perhaps most immediately jarring is the recommendation to add olive oil to smoothies—a culinary choice that defies both conventional wisdom and basic palatability.
I’ve tried putting olive oil in smoothie-adjacent concoctions (calling the things I’ve made “smoothies” would be an insult to smoothies) and it always makes me nauseous.
One time, due to poor planning, the only thing I had available to eat all day was an olive-oil-based smoothie-adjacent beverage, and I still couldn’t manage to choke it down.
