I don't consume anything because it's a super food. But that being said, I adore quinoa and green tea. I just love their flavor. Knowing that it's especially good for me, I eat/drink the often. I like to put my quinoa in a pan and toast it before I add liquid. It really pumps up the flavor and makes it that much more savory.....all of that and Proraso. Proraso is a superfood right?

I also don't do 'superfoods' on an intentional basis, but since I like good tasting stuff and variety I still end up eating them.
I'll roast the quinoa next time I make it, I get the red one because it's nuttier anyways, I can't believe I've never tried roasting it first until now
I like stirring maca root powder in my milk sometimes, with cocoa, without cocoa, with honey without honey, with spices or without... I did say I like variety, didn't I.

I also do the smoothie stuff that Birnando mentioned but much less frequently than him. Actually I often munch on various nuts/seeds/fruit as a snack of sort and some of those are considered 'superfoods'.

I wonder if they have cod liver in the store, I'd like to try it and see if I like it. I generally like liver - veal, chicken, foie gras, various pates/terrines - and eat a lot more of that than the average person in usa, but I don't think I've ever tried fish liver. From the fish insides I've only eaten caviar/roe, or the whole thing in those small fish that are deep fried whole.

Be careful, quinoa pops like popcorn sometimes lol.

Cod liver is sometimes called foie gras de mer. And then there is monkfish liver, a Japanes delicacy.
