Smoothies are very popular here in Honduras. Besides the fruit, the
liquid used is whole milk and it is often thickened with rolled oats
(used as a breakfast cereal here), cornflakes, or even infant cereal.
Using a cereal as a thickener adds nutrition and makes it quite
filling. The cereal and milk adds vitamins and protein.
