'''Robeks Corporation''' is a national [[smoothie]] franchise chain headquartered in [[Manhattan Beach, California]]. It recently expanded to Ireland. It is quite an incredible franchise. They market the idea of "Health" but that in fact is not what they sell. For over $4 will get you 2 scoops of sherbet 12 ounces of juice "from concentrate" and 2 meager scoops of fruit. All blended up disguised in a nice innocent white cup. They mislead their uneducated consumers with nutritional info printed for the 12oz size. Some drinks there actually have well over a 1000 calories in them! Then they have the audacity to try and up sell you junk food such as "Power Cookies." |
