Drinking Sea Monkeys

Water BottleOk some things are supposed to be good for you, some probably are, but what the heck are we drinking these days.

A coworker brought a health beverage to the office, so I was offered a taste and figured why not? The drink was a little thick, slightly thicker than tomato juice, and a little grainy, similar to Metamucil. It didn't taste bad, it was actually rather pleasant. It tasted of pomagranate, prune, and Acai berry.

But the surprise ingredient was revealed on the label: Shrimp and shrimp shells! "What, Sea Monkeys" exclaimed a friend at the office?

Yes indeedy, someone is putting those Sea Monkeys, we used to order from the comic books, to good use these days. Pour them in the water, let them hatch, scoop them up and guzzle them down with exotic fruits, all under the guise of better health.

What's next? Better guard the ant farm, they may be coming for it!

WOW...I don't know what drink it was but I had better start reading labels....I am allergic to shellfish!

Right you are. I assume the shellfish are for calcium, but when something says "all natural" you need to carefully check the ingredients!

Strange....I don't mind shrimp, but I certainly don't want to drink it!!!

Now drinking seamonkeys seems crazy!! However I have recently started drinking kombucha which is a "Western name for sweetened tea or tisane that has been fermented by a macroscopic solid mass of microorganisms called a "kombucha colony," usually consisting principally of Acetobacter-species and yeast cultures."-Wikipedia

I was in the store and was thinking about getting a Red Bull one day when I say this stuff and thought I'd give it a try. Its DIFFERENT yet addicting. It gave me a little Buzz and made me feel great. A bit on the expensive side though but its supposed to be really good for you. Drinking micro-organism has never tasted better!! :)

I am not into shell fish in my water!  I stick with coffee and water!

Nyles ...

Don't get me started on Coffee! I relish it so much I wish that I could take it intravenously! lol

Richard...My sister got the sea monkey kit when we were kids, and she used a large glass to put them in...My little brother thought it was water and drank it!  That was my first thought and a great memory...thanks!

Little did you know your younger brother invented a calcium rich health drink! Add a little vitamin C and you all could have retired young! lol
