Does Anyone Else Agree?

Kauai - Peddlars of healthy living.

So as mentioned the other, I’m trying to follow a reasonably healthier lifestyle right now, which means no booze, meat and other unhealthy stuff.

So as much as it has pained me, I’ve stayed away from the likes of KFC, Steers and the little take-away in Woodstock that drenches their hot chips in weeks-old oil.

Instead, I’ve gone to the likes of Kauai, and have now had a number of their healthy meals, so I feel suitably qualified to make the following statement:

“Kauai’s food has no taste“

There I said it. It’s time we were all honest with ourselves here. I’ve had their wraps, their sandwiches, their salads, and they all have one common taste factor. There is none. It all tastes like thin cardboard, with a slightly spicy carrot flavour. That’s it.

Kauai Food - You can eat it, or you can store your papers in them.

As a test, The Girlfriend blindfolded me and had me do a blind tasting. I took a bite. “Hmmm,” I pondered thoughtfully, “it’s either the Thai veg wrap, or it’s a cut up shoebox garnished with carrot and lettuce shavings.”

I pulled off the blindfold, and lo and behold, it WAS in fact a cut up shoebox garnished with carrot and lettuce shavings.

Now, don’t get me wrong, I don’t want to slag off Kauai, I think their smoothies are amazing. If I could inject their Pacific Passion Fruit smoothie into my eyeballs, I probably would, as it is that good.

But their food?

Meh. I’ll nibble on some chip board instead.

Of course, I could be in a minority of one, so let us hear what you have to say, by voting in the poll below.
