Fancy Juice now open on 1st Avenue



Several readers noted the arrival of Fancy Juice this past weekend on First Avenue between East Fourth Street and East Fifth Street… selling various juices, milkshakes and, yes, acai bowls…



The storefront here at 69 First Ave. was previously home to Burkina (aka Got it 4 cheap™), which closed in March.

H/T Matt Rosen!

Juice is the new Froyo.

Sugar has a new name, don't be fooled there are more calories in this stuff than a marathon could not burn off.

Oh for God's sake. More space wasted on more sugary crap.

The Acai in a hoof market is tragically underserved.

Please tell me Acai was grown by a now extinct ancient culture and a handful of seeds where found by Indiana Jones 60 years ago and his great grand-daughter found the seed inside of relic which got hit by lighting when it was sitting on her yard sale table. I will believe this and any claims of this be the most nutritional food on the planet and no matter how much of it I eat I will never get fat.

I am a healthy eater and generally know my shit. No stranger to the acai berry as sold in the freezer section. Everyone around me is into them, but I am proud to say I still don't fully know what the fuck an 'acai bowl' is. Don't care either! Sometimes it's more satisfying to be ignorant.

So who wants to guess how long this place will last? I predict it will go two or three months before biting the dust.

I don't blame the business, because they're just capitalizing on the idiocy of their willing clients. HOWEVER, the clients... Don't all the bros have college degrees? How do they not know the basic fact that the good part of fruit & veggies is the fiber, not the sugary liquid? Ahhh, it's driving me crazy. How can you not know this?
