The first time I tried wheatgrass juice was about 7 or 8 years ago. I thought it would taste like the green juice you can buy in health food stores made up from different sweet juices. I was in for a surprise. Bleh! It really tasted like....Grass.
Still, considering it's only a shot of juice, as gross as I think it is, it's equivalent to 2.2lbs of vegetables. Pretty good if you ask me.
If you have trouble eating enough vegetables, try taking wheat grass shots once in a while. I wouldn't recommend completely substituting veggies for juice but drinking wheatgrass juice is beneficial in many ways.
