For
Magic Bullet - Magic Bullet
Blender Should You Buy One?
Are you looking to buy a magic
bullet blender? You know... the magic
bullet blender that you see on
tv that's supposed to chop or make just
about anything in seconds?
Or maybe you are thinking about getting
one for a present? Either way please read
my review here of the magic bullet before
you buy.
First off... I've been wanting a magic
bullet blender for some time now
since seeing it on tv for the first
time... yeah I'm a sucker for new
products. But I really thought this would
be a nice addition to my kitchen
appliances since I don't like bulky
blenders and the magic bullet
seemed to fit the bill nicely.
I ended up getting my magic bullet
blender for Christmas and had a
chance to use it on New Years eve to make
some drinks for me and my family.
The first thing that I thought was odd
was the fact that the instruction manual
stresses a lot about how you may need to
pre-prepare the items before sticking
them in the magic bullet blender
so that they are of the correct size so
that the magic bullet can process the
food correctly.
Even so, I decided to try the unit by
just putting the items in and seeing what
came out. I decided to try a smoothie for
my son and put in some bananas, frozen
strawberries, ice cream, and some milk.
After fiddling with the cup to get it to
work (you need to twist and push down) it
started to do it's job. It still didn't
look like it had blended all the
ingredients though so I tried the tap
method as explained in the magic bullet
manual and tried again. Still no luck...
so then I opened the cup back up and
added more milk to thin it out. Once
again... blend and tap blend and tap.
This time it seemed to work better... but
still there was some larger strawberry
chunks left?
So then I tried making me and my wife
some frozen drinks to celebrate the new
year. First some ice, a little drink mix
and some vodka and let er rip... humm,
ice not chopped to well. The ice ended up
coming out more like shaved ice with some
little chunks. Still made a pretty good
drink though, maybe I just needed to
break up the ice a little more before
adding it into the magic bullet?
So my take on the magic bullet
blender so far... it does a
fairly good job but will take practice
getting used to. You will need to do a
little modification to the foods before
blending if you want the magic
bullet blender to do it's job
right. I may need to add to this review
once I get some more practice in... need
to blend some more!
