Synopsis

The (completely) true story of how the smoothie was invented. The Fruitopians only eat fruit, just over the road, in Vegtaville, they're potty about peas. One day (and quite by mistake), our Fruitopian hero, Huck, drops a very squishy peach on his enemy, Drool. Unfortunately, Drool is the biggest boy in Vegtaville and the son of the Vegtavillain king. This starts a battle between the two towns, which becomes the biggest food fight in history. It reaches its conclusion when food history is made! A fable to the wholesome power of healthy eating and covering your neighbour in very ripe tomato.
