I had my first taste of wheatgrass a few months ago. A friend of mine gave me a commercially available wheatgrass packed in a sachet by
Easy Pha-max. I downed a glass which tasted like what else? grass! And I thought that was the last of my wheatgrass story.
Last week, along with my MIL and SIL, we went to Manila Seedling Bank, not buy more plants but to taste freshly juiced wheatgrass. I asked a lot of question while watching the girl juiced our drink. I was trying to calm myself because I dread tasting another glass of grass tasting drink. But to my surprise, the wheatgrass tasted sweet but with a strong after taste though. I understand that as long as it's a 7 day old wheatgrass, the juice drink will taste sweet. Funny thing though, on our way home, MIL and I felt like vomiting/ puking. Thank God for candies inside the car! I don't know if it's the strong after taste or the prevailing scent that I carry with me. I took home the left over wheatgrass as body scrub ; p
