I get that it says “flavored juice drink” now, but I was tired and the text is pretty small.
“Fruit snacks” are so much worse. It’s just candy, and inferior in taste and texture to anything made with actual fruit.
From the UK have to ask, why do Americans put up with corn syrup in absolutely everything? Like seriously fruit juice has to have it??
In Murica? Yes.
Part of this I believe can be attributed to labelling rules. Only the concentrate portion can be called juice.
When it is made from concentrate the reconstituting water is the main ingredient. What's shitty is that water gets more and more sugar/HFCS mixed in so less concentrate is used. Getting it down to 10% or less like that: it's just flavoring the corn.
Then why not just eat actual fruit?
Because I’m thirsty and would like a drink?
Fresh fruits can be expensive in some places, or at least seasonal.
USA? Most drinks here in Canada don't contain HFCS.
Edit: didn't read the thread first, seems like I'm on topic.
Simply Apple Juice is pretty clean and I don’t think there are added sugars if you like apple juice.
Still plenty unhealthy, sugar is absorbed way faster than just eating an apple.
But yeah still more healthy than something that contains HFCS as second ingredient (and thus after water the highest contributing ingredient...)
Eating an apple doesn't quench my thirst though
Well the post was about juice. So I commented about juice.
"family farmer owned"
We would never not sell you the stuff we take from the mother Earth and, old fashioned way, give you the green soylent, mmm, like Mom used to make
Such a fucking scam. I'm ok with "juice from concentrate", but this is literally more HFCS than juice. There should be no HFCS in juice; real juice has plenty of sugar all on its own.
Meanwhile in Canada
Juices like this also exist in the US...
Give it a year with the way your country is massively declining. Soon the FDA will classify straight sugar water is "juice".
I think you mean "straight high fructose corn syrup water".
In the country where pizza is a vegetable, you're probably not far off. Soon enough they'll all be drinking Brawndo and water will be known only for being in toilets.
What Canada doesn't tell you is that they permit 10 Micrograms of Beaver Essence in all products.
I mean, we all gather every year and conduct a ritual to send all our hate and anger into our geese, which gives us the polite nature you see today.
What's a little beaver essence on top of it?
Beaver farts? In YOUR fromage squick squick? It's more likely than you think.
permit
You misspelled require
On the lemonade, I assume that you are pointing out that it is cane sugar rather than HFCS?
Doesn't matter....lemon juice is acidic and cane sugar, or sucrose will undergo acid hydrolysis to glucose and fructose in an hour after bottling.
Idiots importing Mexican coke should have paid more attention in grade 10 chemistry.
Yes, but also lemon juice and lemon pulp, not rehydrated concentrate
Cheap fruit drinks have been this way for the last half century, probably longer.
There's not going to be a major health difference between chugging this shit and fruit juice in terms of how much sugar you're taking in, your body doesn't really care where the sugar comes from, it acts the same inside you. An 8 ounce glass of Welche's Corn Syrup versus an 8 ounce glass of fresh squeezed orange juice are both going to be basically 8 ounces of candy. The orange juice just has more vitamin C and maybe some pulp to slow down the sugar spike in your blood if that's an issue for you.
"Real" fruit juices might have added vitamins or even some amount of fiber, but fruit juice is generally not a healthy drink. It's an alternative to other things like soda or alcohol but you don't reach for a fruit juice bottle for daily hydration. Drink more water, then whatever sweet treats you want on occasion.
A fresh piece of fruit is a bit healthier because it has all those vitamins and minerals and fiber which is good for you, and the fiber content slows down the rapid sugar digestion. But again, it's all carbohydrate calories, that's the area you should be focused on more than if something is "natural."
It is approx 9 teaspoons of sugar per 300ml bottle. Typical tea ~~cup~~ mug is 250-300ml. Imagine putting 9 teaspoons of sugar in your tea or coffee. Fucking gross.
That's exactly how I like my coffee and is the reason I don't drink coffee. I love the smell and it's great in desserts, but miss me with drinking steaming bitter piss. So glad I don't have a caffeine dependency.
Unless you’re looking for Apple or grape juice specifically, this is what you get. I’ve long decided to avoid juices as a result. If I want a sugar water packet, I just pack a honeycrisp apple, orange, Asian pear, plum, or a slightly overripe bartlett pear.
There's juice that's literally labelled in big huge text 100% juice, not from concentrate on the front of the bottle.
Pure passion fruit juice would probably cost you 10-20$ per liter and it would be waaay too concentrated.
Then look left 2 feet and buy anything but this trash.
Skill issue.
Or perhaps we shouldn't create a society where buying juice requires having and using a skill.
