    TheFreeDictionary.com defines a ninja as:

    "A member of a class of 14th-century Japanese mercenary agents who were trained in the martial arts and hired for covert operations such as assassination and sabotage."

    I mean, these are seriously bad-*kitten* dudes.

    However, when struck by even a regular bullet, can still be killed. I'd have to guess that a magic bullet would be even more lethal.

    So, assuming the person shooting the magic bullet is a decent shot, I'd have to go with magic bullet. If not, then I'm definitely backing the ninja.

    Weird question to ask a diet and weight loss forum though.

    Ok, giving my opinion from the pov of someone that purees and blends foods daily for my job. We have a ninja at work. If you are looking to make smoothies, and have them be smooth, not grainy, don't get the ninja. The placement of the blades is not correct for smooth blending. They are placed too far apart. It us great for other things, but not smooth purees. Just a technical pov. I use it daily....

    Ninja Kitchen Systems is the best, hands down. I use it for everything. Well, almost.

    I've owned a regular ($100) Ninja for almost a year now... and a lot of ice for mixed drinks has been through that, and more recently ice/veggies/fruit for protein shakes as well... have yet to have an issue with it.

    I haven't owned a magic bullet, but from using my friend's, it feels almost flimsy to me.

    The ninja won't puree as much as say a food processor, but it works great for anything but a meal you want to drink through a straw.

    I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this, but I'm hoping I'll get some great feedback, regardless!

    I'm interested in getting a really good blender to start making both fruit and vegetable smoothies. My current blender works great for fruit smoothies, but doesn't seem strong enough to handle more fibrous veggies. I'd prefer to use a blender (vs. a juicer), so I can retain as much fiber as possible.

    The top two that I've seen are the Ninja & the Magic Bullet. Does anyone have any suggesstions, recommendations, or user experiences for either of these?

    Thanks in advance for your assistance!

    Love, love LOVE my Ninja!!!!

    I have the magic bullet and the Nutri bullet. The Nutri bullet beats the Ninja by a mile. If you want real smoothies get the Nutri bullet,

    I had two magic bullets. I would not recommend it. It stopped working not to long after I got it. It was fine while it lasted but it only lasted like maybe 8 months. I have never had a Ninja so I can't comment on that. I just bought a really nice blender and it has been working great for over a year.

    I like the Magic bullet theory rather than the invisible Ninja one... Oh wait??? :wink:

    I just use a BRAUN Hand blender to make my protein shakes. As to mixer I'd go with Ninja. :drinker:
