America’s Best Bowl Food: The Bracket | Eater
"An early mainstreamer of smoothies and wellness culture, the smoothie/acai bowls are essentially blended frozen-fruit bases served in a bowl to accommodate granola and fruit toppings. While the chain has added plant milks and trendy ingredients like spirulina, the bowls are often sugary and more dessert-like than a substantive savory meal; some reviews call them a half-hearted ‘fruit soup’ despite their convenience and topping-friendly format." - Jaya Saxena
