i watched my friend's roommate brew kombucha today, it was gross.

I stand by my earlier post that enzymes and bacteria in plain yogurt and fermented soy/tofu (sorry to get all j-food but: natto, tofuyo, etc.) are more healthy for you than kombucha.

i found it for (barely) under $4 near my house wau. still too expensive!

tehresa, Monday, 25 February 2008 04:24 (sixteen years ago) link

yeah but sometimes the idea of more yogurt does not sound intersting and you crave a GINGERADE

chat with MD bud echoing statements above:

[15:04] vc: you want salt and simple sugars
[15:04] vc: then yogurt
[15:04] vc: you need to start replacing the flora
[15:05] vc: you need something that has l. bacillus
[15:05] vc: and acidophillus
[15:06] SS: what about kombucha
[15:06] vc: i don't dislike kombucha
[15:06] vc: but i think the craze over it is a crock of shit

i killed all of mine about 2 years ago (to prep for having a big piece of my large intestine removed) and i still don't feel right.

Steve Shasta, Monday, 28 July 2008 23:31 (fifteen years ago) link

Whole Foods says adios to Kombucha:

RIP $4 questionable health beverage

_▂▅▇█▓▒░◕‿‿◕░▒▓█▇▅▂_ (Steve Shasta), Saturday, 19 June 2010 13:12 (thirteen years ago) link

I went to buy a kombucha yesterday at whole foods and there wasn't any and I asked them why and they told me so I attempted to throw myself in front of an oncoming car

give me back my kombucha damn you all

Local overpriced upscale grocery has lots of kombucha brands still. I want one right about now.

postmodern infidel(ity) (mh), Saturday, 19 June 2010 14:18 (thirteen years ago) link

It's not hard to make.If you don't think the health benefits are worth $4/tiny bottle (they aren't) you can make it and check the potential benefits for free. I have plenty of mothers to give away but I make mine in gallon jars so the girls have a large surface area. Takes a while to get the hang of it-vinegary home kombucha is dud. I'm still alive 2.5 years after doc expected me to croak so kombucha and NN diet get a big a+ from me. Also weed. Also neti. 3/3 for this board apparently.

what about cycling???????????

_▂▅▇█▓▒░◕‿‿◕░▒▓█▇▅▂_ (Steve Shasta), Monday, 21 June 2010 02:47 (thirteen years ago) link

you're sweet for asking but this isn't the cycling board.

soviet, Monday, 21 June 2010 02:58 (thirteen years ago) link

i've had great success making kombucha (it's easy), and i think it tastes better than GT's. if anyone in nyc wants a mother i can give you one.

speaking of wings i am late to the party but my hungover self bought some overpriced organic chicken wings and assorted marbled cheeses at whole foods this morning JUST TO GET A $3 GINGERADE. of course i am late to the party (do keep up) so i was cursing at the pee water coco vita replacement. the hirsute cashier informed me that the FDA has banned all kombucha sales because they weren't able to control alcohol levels in it.

i'm relieved to see Synergy's business model isn't completely dead in the water, but i'm not paying $7 at a bodega.

I am now hooked on this. It's a big city drink though. Not available in small towns. Tried Synergy and Buddah's Brew and love it! LOVE IT!

*tera, Wednesday, 27 March 2013 06:25 (eleven years ago) link

However, started to feel mildly sicky and felt grumpy in a weird way today. Read about detoxing etc and figured I had some of that going on since I juice too.

bilberry flav is rly good ... i bought it as a wild impulse, i am v surprised. it is multigreenesque !

schlump, Tuesday, 12 July 2016 23:08 (seven years ago) link

i rly wd appreciate some guidance on what else is good since it is such a Flavor Universe now. i had hibiscus ginger which is only okay. also i went to SF & saw a double-size bottle of gingerade. very powerful scene.

schlump, Tuesday, 12 July 2016 23:10 (seven years ago) link

all the supermarkets here are at war & it has pushed the price of supermarket-provenance-GTS down to a citywide $3. wonderful. just a great time to be alive.

schlump, Tuesday, 12 July 2016 23:11 (seven years ago) link

i also read this

sort of expecting the guy to be unbearable but eventually feeling moved to write a long whitmanesque cycle of poems in his honour. he is like a kind of 21c johnny appleseed character almost. a new age fermentation-centric john henry.
