    To be fair, we stopped buying their frozen juice around 20 years ago when the off-brand juices became just as good and Minute Maid started putting increased amounts of sugar in most of them (and jacking up the prices of the others).

    Then probably 5 years later, we just stopped buying juice altogether and went back to eating fruit and making smoothies from frozen fruit.

      Yeah I drank OJ like it was going out of style until I realized it was rotting my teeth and making me fat, just soda with fresher taste (and more acid). They don’t give juice to kids anymore. It was a scam. Fruit is awesome tho, I try to eat a couple pieces a day.

        My old man was drinking like a gallon of OJ (boomer logic of vitamin C, juice is good for you, etc.) a week until the doctor said he was pre-diabetic lol.
