The 10 Minute Meal... in a Cup.

Today's Concoction was born out of an "I wonder..." thought of mine. Futuristic movies have always planted seeds of hope of one day ingesting a single pill and then tasting an entire meal while gaining all of the nutrients and such therein. We are nowhere near a product like that in this day and age, but the closest I could come to fitting an entire meal in a pill was fitting an entire meal in a cup.

First I procured what I intended on eating for a normal meal. A bowl of some (in my case, leftover) hamburger helper-esque dinner, a bowl of instant garlic mashed potatoes, and a large glass of Country Fresh Lemonade.

Upon adding these 3 ingredients together in the blender I began to question if this was really a good idea or not. It did not appear very appetizing and I hadn't even turned the blender on yet.

Following a short blending session, my uneasiness remained... it still didn't look very good.

I carefully poured my creation from the blender back into my glass and took a sip.

It didn't make me vomit, but I wouldn't exactly call it appetizing. As one of my friends said in a taste test for the Taste the Rainbow Float, "This was not greater than the sum of its parts". It was very liquidy, due to the large amount of lemonade and the near liquid mashed potatoes comprising most of the concoction. I only made it through about half of the glass before I just didn't want anymore and went and made myself a PB&J instead. :)

In my culinary adventures on this blog thus far I haven't really had a failure yet. I think after tonight that statement no longer is true. Never fear, my thirst for knowledge (and a little fun) has not been quenched and I will continue to push the envelope of what is done in the kitchen. For better or for worse, it will continue...
