Love may be blind, but that doesnโt mean your romantic partnerโs eating habits wonโt ever disgust you.
Megan Walerius, a star of โLove Is Blindโ Season 9 found that out firsthand when she agreed to try her fiancรฉ Jordan Keltnerโs signature smoothie in a Season 9 episode of โLove Is Blind.โ
The couple got engaged sight unseen while chatting in the โLove Is Blindโ dating pods then moved in together after meeting in person for the first time. In Episode 9, Jordan prepped a chicken smoothie for his bride-to-be.
The comedic scene began with the duo standing in the kitchen. Jordan pulled out a bag of chicken and smelled it, saying, โGood stuff.โ He then noted that the smoothie includes eight ounces of chicken.
โAnd how do you cook that chicken?โ Megan asked.
โItโs not cooked at all. Just kidding. I just bake it,โ he said.
Jordan proceeded to fill up a container with water and poured in a packet of Crystal Light drink mix. As she watched, Megan made some nervous sounds as she anticipated tasting the unique creation. Jordan then blended everything together in a NutriBullet.
When Jordan took the cover off the concoction, Megan exclaimed, โOh, I can smell it!โ and fanned her hands in the air.
โSmells like chicken. Who cares?โ her fiancรฉ replied.
Before drinking, Megan smelled the contents of her glass and made a barfing noise.
โSo then we go, โCheers!โ and then you just chug it,โ Jordan instructed his fiancรฉe.
After taking a sip, Megan spat slightly and said, โNo, uh-uh.โ She put her glass down and waved her hand in the air again.
Jordan tried to stay strong and finish his drink, but leaned over the sink and pounded his fist on the countertop.
โThat is so f—— gross,โ she said about the smoothie. โOh my God, the texture.โ
โItโs like a little gritty sometimes for sure,โ Jordan replied as he continued to down the drink.
While drinking, Jordan developed a chicken-smoothie mustache.
โThe mustache, I canโt,โ she said and they both laughed.
Megan then gave the drink her final verdict, saying, โEww, I could do without ever seeing this again in my life.โ
โThatโs OK, you just have to see it every morning for the next 50, 60, 70, potentially 80 years,โ Jordan said, then proceeded to describe the calories of the drink (350) and its protein contents (55 grams).
Jordan then encouraged Megan to feel his muscles, saying, โFeel it. Feel it. See?โ
Megan reminded him that he could get the same protein intake from eating six eggs.
โBut this is way quicker than making six eggs,โ he argued.
โEww,โ she said.
In a later episode, Megan met Jordanโs parents and brought up the smoothie moment.
โItโs been funny. Iโm like a foodie and Jordan (makes) chicken smoothies,โ she said.
His mother looked surprised then asked, โAre you still doing those?โ
Jordan replied with one word: โAllegedly.โ
Social media users had a lot to say about the viral moment when Netflix posted it on Instagram.
โThis is disturbing on every level! Just eat the damn chicken or make a protein shake,โ one commented.
One Instagram user called the moment โthe worst thing Iโve ever seen on televisionโ while another said theyโd โwalk out of the experiment right then and there.โ
Reddit users were also quite opinionated on the matter.
โYou know what, iโm fine with Jordan for the most part โ he is probably my favorite of the guys this season even tho that isnt saying much โ but a baked chicken and crystal light smoothie every morning???โ one Reddit user commented.
Another called it โunforgivable.โ
โI was drinking a smoothie while I watched this too!! I was not okay,โ one commented.
