Title: Goji berries
Post by: smurfboy on July 31, 2006, 12:46:34 pm

These are apparently the latest 'super-food' and supposedly contain anti-ageing properties. I got some from Holland and Barrett yesterday and after my first taste, I thought 'I'd rather look old'. Over-chewy and slightly salty tasting. However, they then become moreish somehow. Anyone else tried?

Never heard of them! I think the anti aging stuff is just to increase sales.

Just slap on some Astral cream smurfy. It seems to work for Joanna Lumley.

I don't need any anti-ageing help anyway. I'm 109 and as you can see from my picture, I hardly have a wrinkle.
