Q: Questioncan we put in small chunks of veg (such as carrots) for a veg smoothie --without hurting the blender.

Asked 5 years ago by cougarbuckeye.

• A:Answer Yes. Not much will hurt this blender. You can put ice in it and it turns to snow. You can even put carrots in it, and turn it on speed setting 1 and it acts as a chopper. You can put frozen vegies and fruits in this thing and it crushes them. Turns to mush or liquid.
