It's amazing something so healthy can taste so good
Not really... If you add enough sugar to anything it tastes pretty damn good. Just look at Coca Cola and Pepsi. Seriously, without all the added sweetness they would taste pretty awful.
Speaking of Coca Cola and Pepsi... One 600ml bottle of Coca Cola contains 63.6 grams of sugar. One Tropical Storm Smoothie from Boost Juice contains 69.1 grams of sugar.
To put these figures into perspective, a teaspoon of sugar is about 4 grams, so if you add two to a cup of tea or coffee, that makes 8 grams. Let's also consider the 20ml of milk that you're adding - which also adds another 2 grams of sugar - and that effectively means that in order to match the sugar in just ONE Boost Juice Smoothie you would need to drink roughly SEVEN cups of tea/coffee.
It seems these days all you have to do to convince people that something is healthy is to simply claim it. Use bright colours in your advertising, hire children to run your business for you, and use special keywords like immune, boost and vitamins, and BOOM - people will buy it, hook, line and sinker.
This multi-millionaire businesswoman has absolutely no qualms about what she's doing - she even has the bare audacity to continue to portray herself as a yoga-loving health food guru to the media. If she had even a shred of decency she'd apologise to everyone for poisoning them with copious amounts of sugar under the guise of offering healthy shakes and then slink away into obscurity. Instead we get to watch her in action on SharkTank where she tries to swallow up good business ideas by offering terrible equity deals to naive, unsuspecting business novices who probably have no idea that the woman is worse than Satan, lying to an unsuspecting, uneducated public who yearns to be healthy but just doesn't have the time in which to realistically achieve it.
What golden gems of advice should the budding entrepreneur expect from Janine Allis the evil marketing genius when taking her equity deal? Perhaps she can skill them in the myriad of ways in which you can most effectively lie to your customers? Or perhaps she can offer them justifications so they can feel better about hiring schoolchildren and underpaying them, effectively having them carry out all the hard work of your business for you? Or maybe she can tell you how to bend over in front of her while she's holding a giant black dildo - because if you accepted an equity deal with her, well, believe it - you're gonna get fucked - you'd just better hope that the contract she made you sign included a clause in which you receive an adequate amount of lube.
