I used to work at a boutique hotel bar that prided itself on being “unpretentious” even though they sold $18 charcoal infused cocktails. When I pointed out to my manager that charcoal messed with a bunch of medications (and that daiquiri was misspelled on our menu) and was basically told to shut up, I knew it was time to quit.
Steve, I told you then and I'll say it again: SHUT. UP. Okay? Nobody is getting knocked up in our hotel, nobody is becoming depressed and/or psychotic, nobody's ADHD is getting worse because of us, and nobody is going to sue us. Okay? YOU'RE FIRED!!!1!!1
In defense of of the spelling daiquiri: "look we misspelled a drink were so unpretentious and quirky ;)"
would the activated charcoal make it harder to get drunk?

Was it called Dackery?
The pigment in red dragonfruit overpowers literally any other colors you throw into a smoothie. Also, unlike beet juice, it has the benefit of not staining everything afterwards.
And it has zero flavor. If you want dragon fruit flavor, you want to mix with the yellow variety as well. Those are the best ones.
@@anotheryoutuberperson38 THANK YOU! I have to keep explaining this to people. The yellow dragonfruit is SOOOOOOO much better than the others.
Wild blueberries will cover up any green smoothie as well.
"(These are just colored water, to avoid wasting real smoothies on a demonstration)"
The small things like this are why you're amongst the best, imo
Wow, I didn't see that after watching it 3x. 2:16 for those interested
we are going through a cost of living crisis here. this man is working FOR THE PEOPLE by buying varied products, trialling them, giving us the honest takes, and saving all of us money and time
THANK YOU!
If you're having price problems, don't buy expensive ingredients regardless of recommendations, stick it out with rice and potato till you're in a spot where a bumped grocery bill isn't going to hit your bank anymore
@@davidy22 still, people deserve to have fun. having to endure capitalism while also having to eat only potatoes is too much
@@finn8518 figuratively, what you said is deep asf
@@davidy22 there's a big difference between buying chicken and buying blue spirulina

I learned from fantano’s smoothie videos that red cabbage is chock full of vitamins and minerals and turns smoothies a nice pink
didnt expect to find another thatistheplan fan here
Shouts out to Reese I. Steng
The video title: “Can a Smoothie Be Healthy AND Pretty?”
The man in the thumbnail: smooth, healthy, and pretty.
Yes
In undergrad my go-to smoothie at the dining hall smoothie place was mango, pineapple and kale for produce, and it was a nice pretty bright green colour. Greens in smoothie only become gross colours when you include other strongly coloured fruits. 😊
I make a similar smoothie with spinach instead of kale, haha. You’re right, mangoes and pineapples in green smoothies are just tastier too
This man simply does not miss
I literally just tried ashwaghanda yesterday too. Man only gets critical hits
It never occurred to me to decorate my smoothies as ostentatiously as I decorate coffee or cocktails but it really is same shit different toilet… Excellent video as usual Shaq, you’ve spared my nutribullet another sad year collecting dust in the back of my closet
I don't know how to feel about using shit as a metaphor for describing foods and drinks...
@@trevorminton6084blend it brown and suck it down...
My trick is that whenever I am at a low point of my week and I have a existential "event" I consume every vitamin and fiber rich vegetable in my immediate vicinity.
No smoothie, nothing pretty, just a complete lizard brain fueled augmentation of entropy.
I am happy for you that you've established this ritual
i have no qualms about drinking colorful, “sugary” smoothies because i almost never have desserts in my apartment and smoothies are basically the only way i can get fruits into my diet (whereas I have no problems working veggies in regularly). I make a smoothie with strawberries, blueberries, and a banana and add the silk almond & cashew milk with pea protein, chocolate pb2, lemon juice, hemp hearts, flaxseeds, and chia seeds. It’s delicious, has a decent amount of protein and fat, and fills in gaps in my diet. Everything in moderation :)
i love your perspective! everyone has a different perspective here, its important to look at your diet as a whole :)
can't you just eat a fruit
@@giannis5250 Maybe they have a texture aversion or can only get it down their throat if it's pretty looking. This statement is dumb.
@@giannis5250 absolutely I can! But usually i don’t. I’m not a big snacker and if I have, say, an apple that I plan to eat alongside a meal I always forget about it until I’m full. the types of smoothies I tend to make are more complete as a meal replacement on busy or low appetite days than just some fruit.
@@giannis5250 🤓🤓🤓🤓
I was having a panic attack earlier but Shaq and his moustache fixed it.
I saw the title and thought well that’s cool he’s gonna show off some nice looking smoothies but I didn’t expect them to look THAT fantastic!
pretty common thing to say already but i'd take these at home rather than get dressed and drive to the supermarket for one serving.
When he said “it’s time to become the Smoothie King” I teared up
I've been putting cauliflower and peeled cucumbers in my smoothies for a while for the aesthetic but to be honest they're a good addition to dilute the whole sugar bomb that smoothies actually are 😄
Your videos are incredibly well written
Edit: It's actually insane, you make so many seamless references to popular internet communities without breaking the flow of the sentence, people who get it will be more engaged and the people who don't won't even notice because of how smooth it is.
Can u point out some of these I’m curious
@@avacadomangobanana2588 In hindsight, I think I could have worded my complement better, in some other videos he sometimes references popular youtube manosphere and men's fitness ideas, it's usually woven into the sentence such that even if you aren't a part of those communities and don't consume any content from them you still understand what he's saying. I can't word it perfectly as my English needs improvement but this is how I feel about it. Though I don't know if he does this intentionally.
One thing he does do well that I can explain is sprinkle in ideas not directly related to the video but he doesn't linger on them long enough for the viewer to be disconnected from the main content of the video. But lingers on it just long enough to get the viewer thinking about it. For example, when he's talking about smoothie prices and how most people would find those prices absurd yet feel it's justified to pay more to poison themselves with alcohol, doesn't linger on it, doesn't say alcohol bad!!! or anything as such but just plants an idea in the viewer's head to think about.
He is a very talented writer!
@@avacadomangobanana2588 more prevalent in his older videos is the referencing of Super Smash Bros Melee, it's what brought me on the intshaq train.
I just started an internship with my uni's athletics dept, and will be teaching the athletes how to make smoothies, definitely going to incorporate some of these tips!
Honestly, I love the introduction of food design, especially in such a difficult dish (what staying true to the message)
I sit through the ads just because of the way he introduces them
Man, I love your channel. Keep doing what you do!
If you like to add greek yoghurt in your smoodie i really recommend Fage brand, because even the nonfat version is thick and smooth and creamy and luxurious. Plus, it's actually strained yoghurt with just nonfat milk and live cultures, no thickeners or binders or gels or gums, it's glorious.
Yogurt is a good idea. I rinse, drain and add half a cup of white cannellini beans. Also adds a nice smoothness.
smoodie
Is there something supposedly wrong with thickeners or gums?
@@shawnsg It's not harmful, but it's a sign that it has more water in it. I guess that doesn't strictly matter if you're only using it in a smoothie, as long as you don't care about not getting as much product for your money.
Some nonfat yoghurts also have added sugar to account for the lost flavour, so watch out for that as well.
I love these ideas! Thank you for posting!
I followed you when you were on Vine and I am so glad I found your RUclips channel years later. Your stuff is great and I’ve learned a lot 😁
A little bit of frozen mango has a *huge* impact on making your smoothie a nice smooth texture. I use frozen berries often as my base and it's a game changer.
No name is the best I'm finding right now out west.
Shaq the Goat of RUclips Fr, I love that you're revisiting older vids and presenting your changed views on stuff WHILE making a dope food vid. absolute savage informative as always will try making that coconut cloud smoodie.
I have done the beet thing for a while now. I thinly slice the beets and put them with a 50/50 water and natural honey mix in a pot on low heat and it makes a vibrant syrup to line your glass with.
I love these suggestions. Thanks, Net Shaq.
My Dr just recommended smoothies to me. The timing 💖
I make my smoothies pretty by layering them in! The bottom layer can be a little ugly with spinach, but the top layer or layers will leverage dragon fruit and blue spirulana. As a whole, it ends up looking very pretty.
I think a good black colored substitute for smoothies would be black cocoa powder. Like make a chocolate smoothie and add black cocoa to make it much darker
Gr8 video and I honestly wouldn't have thought to use cauliflower, guess I'll be drinking my salads from now on
I sometimes take for granted Internet Shaquille. Then I remember how my life was before short form, well documented, genuinly funny food content came into my life, and stop for a few minutes to praise the lord for this blessing. God save Netshaq.
This is crazy perfect timing for us down in Australia, smoothing out my summer.
P.S. activated charcoal is used in paracetamol (acetaminophen) overdose due to this.
“Blend it brown, suck it down” for business
“Mix it cloudy, then get rowdy” for pleasure
That little self-proclaimed in the ad was perfect
To make a smoothie pretty add a good amount of ice to add the separation effect for lights, darks & color transition too, nice vid!
Oh this is game-changing! Great video!
This is the one that earned a sub. Awesome tricks. Presentation matters, even if just to myself. A little treat for me.
I appreciate that you aren’t going into half naked evidence of the health benefits of each product. Just discussing ways to boost appearance and texture with ingredients other than those packed with sugar. Sure, each ingredient you introduced has an agreed upon health benefit, but that’s not your focus here and I appreciate that.
I love your style of videos! Fast Facts but entertaining
This is simply the best channel on RUclips
How is it possible to make every video a certified banger?
great stuff as always Shaq
I make kale smoothies most mornings with Apple and Mango. They're generally bright green.
I also make strawberry, banana, blueberry and raspberry smoothies, they're super pretty and bright pink.
I just add a tiny touch of honey and water.
black sesame paste can also darken a smoothie, and is chock-full of vitamins and minerals
wow with ur tips I can finally stop inhaling my smoothies with my eyes closed
Thank you SO MUCH for the brief coconut cream guide. I have gotten that from an Asian food store, but otherwise found it difficult to locate. I wanted some for a chicken recipe, but was largely confused as to what I was supposed to get. Very helpful!
Hey Shaq I love your videos but haven’t watched this yet because I am a very busy man. But I wanted to say that dragonfruit powder gives me smoothies a lovely pink color even when they’re loaded with kale. I’m also experimenting with purple yam powder, though I don’t know if this one makes them more or less healthy
Ashwagandha is a spice. Use it in spice quantities:
Source: Ashwagandham in tea is very popular in my country and makes the tea taste like plant-sick.
Putting a spoonful of Ashwaganda in my shake as a shilajit supplement and having my Thyroid gland explode because some importer marketed it as "Horse Strength Herb" that increases your testosterone and makes you strong (like horse).
That oil painted serving glass trick is a game changer.
thank you for making this video, shaquille o'neil
I love spinach and I love smoothies but my stupid brain refuses to drink smoothies with spinach in them because of the color it becomes. It makes me nauseous even though it tastes no different. May have to try some of these alternate methods!
I thought you def made a mangonada with that yellow and red smoothie!
This sort of aesthetic change might seem silly, but I’d be so much more willing to drink something pretty than a greyish brown slugde, and it feels really cool to make something that looks nice (plus you can show off!)
Thanks for mentioning activated charcoal's risks -- I cringe every time I see people use it as ""healthy"" food coloring, especially when they say it's good for you because of the "detoxifying" properties. Which... when you're in the hospital having overdosed on something? Sure. Day-to-day as a supplement? Probably not.
I mean, eating fresh fruit (in blended form) is also good for you! Won't give you a lot of energy through the day, but it's good for you!
I don’t drink smoothies, I don’t even like them, but I won’t pass a Shaq video. My man is so good that I even watch even his ads.
You’re completely right on pretty smoothies being nothing, but sugar. I want to point this out, because smoothies can be surprisingly calorically dense. The only vegans that I’ve seen become obese ate a ton of processed foods + smoothies or shakes.
Vegan here trying to gain weight.
I've been adding a smoothie to my breakfast every morning. Hoping it helps lol
Another awesome video man
totally off topic, but would you make some black sesame, green tea or red bean ice cream please?
really any interesting Asian ice cream would be nice.
i loved this video!
1.5 C mixed berries, 1 C kale, throw in some "Amazing" berry greens powder and some ground chia or flax seeds. 1.5 C water or juice Super nutritious, tastes great, and berry-color.
0:30 Preachhh!! 🙌
As someone who goes to erewhon almost everyday for a smoothie, I can't thank you enough for this video!!!!!1! If these hats are for sale I'd love to buy one for my next erewhon haul where I won't be getting a smoothie, cuz I can make it at home like the skill issued home cook I am
$20/day smoothie budget is wild
I can't stop admiring that fancy microwave door handle.
The frozen cauliflower is such a great move, my grocery store only has huge bins of spinach so some always winds up going to waste.
@Elizabeth Hassler I assumed that frozen spinach wasn't a thing, none of the grocers by me have it, but I'll keep an eye out for it. Thanks.
@@ranger_1472 Frozen spinach usually comes in little rectangular packages. It's like it's chopped and compressed. Real easy to miss if you don't know what it looks like
Don't forget that most produce that's about to go bad can be saved in the freezer! And depending on what it is, can be thrown into smoothies or soups
thx
I love this guy
Never thought of putting cauliflower in my smoothie. Going to try that next time
Been waiting on this one, can’t wait to get the smoothie game right 😎🔥🔥🔥
I enjoy some cucumber in my smoothies sometimes. I'm definitely gonna try some cauliflower now, very curious what that will taste like.
Well, now I want a damn smoothie.
Amazing ❤❤❤
That blue spirulina makes cups look like the 90s
Thank you for this video. Look, I know rationally that a brown smoothie is fine, but my brain sees the color and shrieks, "It's poison! It's old! Brown fruit is rotten!." Plus, my blender can't quite handle spinach or seeds and still achieve a smooth consistency. I'll sacrifice those five spinach leaves to shut it up.
When you add that charcoal makes your medications less effective!! 🥳🥳 Love your videos
another banger!!!
Yooo, that hat is so sick! Let me cop one Mr. Shaquille!
Wow what a natural unplanned interaction! It's available at dinnerwithbarkley.com :)

My favourite smoothie:
1 cup plain Greek yogurt
2 Tbsp peanut butter powder
Mango
Berries
Spinach
RASPBERRIES (make the colour pink)
2 Tbsp chia seeds
Over 20 grams of protein and 8 grams fibre!
Wow I just had a flashback. The topic, the weather, I can't believe I've been watching you since like 2018. Time passes so fast. I have a vivid memory of listening to your video about one of those overpriced nutrition things while packing up our old shop around this time four years ago. Went back and looked, yup.
babe wake up 'netshaq posted!!!
I'd never consider a cauliflower swap for spinach / kale in a smoothie because those greens add much needed vitamin K in order to absorb vitamin D appropriately without stripping calcium from our bones. Trust me, for women this is especially foundational to deal with bone density and bone health. I do use cauliflower instead of grains for lots of other things though. Love your channel and videos!
I've been drinking the exact same flesh-colored smoothie every day for like five or six years
WILD BLUEBERRIES (can but frozen at most grocery stores) will cover up any and all green or brown smoothies. Dark purple is very appetizing... And very nutritious. I add all kinds of powders and greens and such to my smoothie when i have blueberries in it.
Charcoal might also cause heavy obstipations. Combine it with banana and have fun with your intestines getting clogged.
Medic Charcoal should only be used when you're having diarrhea.
Or when your doctor prescribes it to you for whatever reason.
surely it must be scribed as in "scribe" -ed? Love you bro
Beet root is also a natural vasodilator, so it makes an excellent addition to a pre workout smoothie.
...no. It is not a vasodilator, it has the potential to increase smooth muscle elasticity. No viable peer-reviewed study has found a measurable increase in Time To Exhaustion in healthy individuals given a pre-workout dose of beet root. The only studies that have shown a "performance benefit" from beetroot used patients with severe heart failure as their test subjects. Unless you are suffering from profound atherosclerosis, slamming beetroot before your workout is nothing more than a placebo.
The whole beetroot craze is like people reading studies that say defibrillation gives people suffering ventricular fibrillation a 55% higher chance of living, and thereby extrapolating that defibrillators must make your healthy heart work better too, right? Shock me up! Can you put lightning in a smoothie?
Masterclass needs to give Internet Shaquille his own spot. He's worth it..
Im in love with the mario look of internet shaquille
this is a very good video but what captivated me more was the fact that he looks like the dude from the dolmio pasta sauce
How do you drink any of hte cocnut cream/the blue thing if it's all smeared on the side of hte glass? Doesn't it stay there because it's hard to remove so you wouldn't actually drink any of it?
Dude imma make some hella smoothie bro feel me ya ya ya
Nice
Hey Shaq, which vitamix blender do you use to make your smoothies? Thanks!
What do you mean? Any Vitamix is good and will do. You can also buy a Vitamix clone which will work fine as well.
THANK YOU for that warning on activated charcoal! I always see people talk about how pretty is makes food but no one ever talks about how it affects medication. Would hate for a day of HRT to go to waste just cause i wanted the cool grey ice cream with the black ice cream cone 🥴
eating large quantities of charcoal can also cause stomach cancer. I really can't believe it isn't better regulated.
Black cocoa powder
Do you have any thoughts on sourcing spirulina? It feels like nearly every source I find on it says a lot of brands are full of lead or mycotoxins
You could try the brand he uses in the video? The bag says Lone Star Botanicals
Why is Shaq still criminally under-viewed and under-subbed after all this time 😪
i don't think he uploads video's consistantly.
when he did he had way more views.
tbh his video topics are kinda niche, you have to already be on food-tube to appreciate them. Someone who is starting to cook would rather have everything explained step by step
