    Walk, drive, or hitchhike to your local supermarket and verify this.

    I can't find any other OJ which only contains OJ.
    That's why I said you are 99% correct.

    And even Florida's Natural other varieties list additional ingredients.

    Stay away from the Brazil OJ.
    The OJ is heated for the pasturization process.
    This is a good thing.
    Check the Florida's Natural website.
    It's all explained.

    (I don't live in Florida...I have no financial interest in Florida's Natural products.)

    (Humidity is unbearable in Florida. But, of course, they must be given credit for being a no state income tax state.)

  8. When are you going to understand that the food/beverage companies just play with the word "natural", with full FDA approval?

    In other words, they can add pretty much anything to the final product and STILL call it "natural", get it now?

    In the case of orange juice, they add a mysterious substance they call "essence of orange", to give the juice a "fresh" taste. They also heat the juice and can keep it in storage containers for up to a year.

    And yet they dare to call it "natural" and "fresh".

    Wake up man.

    So....If companies can say anything that they want to then:

    Why
    would all the other OJ companies list ingredients that people don't want, unless they are required to do so???

  10. What listed (but unwanted) ingredients are you talking about, as far as the orange juice industry is concerned?

    All you see on the label is something like "pure orange juice", or "100% natural orange", etc...

    But they never tell you HOW they "process" that juice exactly, or the additives they put in the juice to give it a "natural" flavor, or the amount of time it has been sitting in storage containers. The trick here is that they add "essence" from the orange itself, so they can fool around with the word "natural".

    Also, keep in mind that heating the juice destroys vital nutrients and vitamins, and what's left is basically a "dead" juice.

    But hey, if it's more convenient for you to simply buy orange juice from the supermarket and believe it's 100% "fresh" and "natural", instead of squeezing your own at home, that's your problem buddy.
