Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Corpus Kritzisse Classic Kids A Big ninety three nine. Hey,
what's going on? It is hit Man with you and
I have Evan from Smoothie King in the studios.

Speaker 2 (00:06):
Hey, how's it going doing pretty well?

Speaker 3 (00:07):
Thank you for having me.

Speaker 2 (00:08):
Hey, now I hear you know I love SMOOTHI King.

Speaker 1 (00:11):
I always go there every one in a long get
me great smoothie before if I want to go work
out and stuff like that. I guess so's smooth King
right afterwards. But you guys are starting something new and
that's including like toast and food.

Speaker 2 (00:21):
What's going on?

Speaker 3 (00:22):
Yep, that's gonna be our loaded toast. We're gonna have
three different variations of loaded toast launching as well as
two different protein protein boxes.

Speaker 2 (00:31):
Okay, so tell us a little bit about those protein boxes.

Speaker 3 (00:33):
So on the protein boxes, you're gonna have the it's
gonna be pre made, Okay, We're gonna have different cheese
fruits in there. We're gonna have the eggs excuse me,
hard boiled eggs. But then you're gonna have a mixture
to where you could either do like an eggs and
cheese or more of like a peanut butter with the crackers. Oh,
you guys are able to take it on the go
and get that protein. One of them is gonna have
twenty six grams of protein for that egg and cheese box,

(00:54):
and then the peanut butter box is gonna have twenty
one grams of protein.

Speaker 2 (00:57):
Wow, So you're gonna have those.

Speaker 1 (00:58):
And of course the toast, I know you were talking
about avocado toast and then you had some other ones,
So tell me a little bit about.

Speaker 3 (01:04):
Those, gotcha. So on the avocado toast, that one's going
to be nine grams of protein, with the toast having
the avocado spread and then the everything seasoning on top
of it. And then the other two that you're mentioning
was going to be the peanut butter one with a
peanut butter spread layered with bananas, strawberries, blue butt berries,
and then a honey drizzle, and then that's going to
have thirteen grams of protein. And then the chocolate hazel

(01:25):
nut is going to be that spread, but it's the
same spread that we have that we use on our bowls,
and it's a vegan nutella, so just to give you perspective, okay,
And that's going to have strawberries, blueberries, and then purely
Elizabeth Granola, top quality granola.

Speaker 1 (01:37):
So this would be perfect for like if like after
you finished working out and you need some extra protein.

Speaker 2 (01:42):
You can have that after your workout or even before
the workout.

Speaker 1 (01:45):
It's instead of using the protein powders and all the
bars and stuff like, you can have this instead.

Speaker 3 (01:49):
Right, You could actually do it for both because the
way that you want to look at it, when you're
working out, you want to make sure that you're also
giving yourself the natural carbs for that fuel, for that
energy that your body's going to use it right, right, okay,
And the carbs are going to come from the toast, right,
and then you're going to get the protein from the
other toppings that are on there. And then you compare
these still with the smoothies that have the protein in it,
so that way you're still getting those protein powders, maybe
just in a different variation instead of doing like the

(02:11):
bar or something. Maybe you could sip a smoothie and
eat a piece of the toast to make it a
good combo.

Speaker 2 (02:15):
Oh wow, that sounds pretty good. So when does this
all start?

Speaker 3 (02:18):
Officially, this is launching nationally on the twenty six, but
we're doing a soft launch starting today.

Speaker 1 (02:24):
Yes, oh okay, So people can go to Smoothie King
and they could find out more details concerning these protein
boxes toasts besides the smoothies they are.

Speaker 2 (02:31):
There, which I love your smoothies. So where are some
of the locations that people can go to.

Speaker 3 (02:35):
So we've got four of them in Corpus and one
in Kingsville. Ok So the Foreign Corpus, we have two
big stores that people know. One of them is the
Maccardo store right across the street from the mall in
that plaza where Urban Air is at right. Go on
to the south side and we're going to have one
in that plaza where Laplaia used to be and now
it's switched over to a wing location.

Speaker 2 (02:51):
Okay, yeah, okay, I know that.

Speaker 3 (02:53):
And then we're inside two Freedom fitnesses. So the big
one that is on Airline that everybody knows. Just walk
inside up in the front, go to the left and
you don't even have to be a member with Freedom
Fitness and you can get a smoothie. Same thing on
the south side where the old Gaddytown used to be,
where HB Plus is at right, Go in there, walk
to the left, same thing just tell them you're getting
a Smoothie. Don't even have to be a Freedom Fitness member.
And then we also have the one in Kingsville out

(03:14):
there by the University in that plaza as well on
University Boulevard.

Speaker 1 (03:17):
Wow, so we got a lot of great locations you
can go and try this out. Of course, you'll be
able to find a lot of this online also pretty soon, right.

Speaker 3 (03:24):
Soon after the actual launch date, but since we're able
to do a soft lunch, we're kind of doing these
teasers letting everybody know that this is what we have.
You can come to the store and try the toast.
Obviously not the protein boxes because those are prepackaged and
when we make them. But this way you can sample
the toast, figure out which ones you like, give some
feedback if you're open to that, and then have fun
with it. All right.

Speaker 1 (03:42):
Well, Evan, thanks a lot for coming in and tell
us about some of the great new stuff at SMOOTHI King,
thank you all right. On the way, we got more
music coming up on Big ninety three to nine.
