Hey all,

So, I was curious as to how well your high power blenders work when you add blueberries to the mix? Do they get the skins of the blueberry down to almost not noticeable? My little one doesn't, and when I drink my smoothie I always end up with blueberry skins in my teeth! Makes me chug it before I go to work.

Thanks a bunch!

My vitamix makes 'em "all gone". Not instantly though...

Same with the BlendTec - I add frozen blueberries every day to my green smoothie. I've never had an issue with them. *Ü*

Yep. Vitamix = pulverizes anything, including blueberry skins :)

I only wish my vitamix would get those blasted blackberry seeds... /cry

Yep! Blueberry, plum... all the skins. Blackberry seeds? Nahhh.

I just threw some blueberries into my Waring blender...which cost around $100 maybe (I actually don't remember how much I paid for it but it wasn't bad for a glass container blender) and it disintegrated them. No blueberry skins.
