Bouncing this against the list of "14 Superfoods" it's rather impressive:

Beans
Blueberries CHECK!
Broccoli
Oats CHECK!
Oranges
Pumpkin
Salmon
Soy
Spinach
Tea -- green or black CHECK!
Tomatoes
Turkey
Walnuts
Yogurt CHECK!


You're having beans at one of your other meals, right? You *could* notch up
another item by putting soymilk either into your tea or your oatmeal. And
it looks like walnuts would fit right in with your oatmeal, too.

But I suppose adding broccoli, oranges, pumpkin, salmon, spinach, tomatoes,
and turkey to your oatmeal would take away some of its appeal. :-)
