why is it that when you buy a jug of orange juice its way more orange juicy then when you just buy the concentrate and mix it up yourself. the prices are the same, i just buy which ever is on sale but still, why is the concentrate way less orange juicy when the stuff in the jug is made from concentrate as well. its stupid, i think they just sell the frozen concentrate at extortionist prices. i wouldnt have any problem if the frozen was half the price and i could use two per jug. whatever this is stupid waiting for the 'obama didnt get congress to talk about so and so and thats why we cant have good orange juice'

You guys sure you are drinking 5 Alive?

Not according to Wiki:

Once widely available in the U.S., it is now more difficult to find. Five Alive is, however, still widely distributed in Canada and in the UK, as a plastic bottled or canned drink, also in 250 ml cartons suitable for vending machines or as a frozen concentrate. Also available in 1.89L cartons or 2.44L plastic jugs), as well as 200mL tetrapak boxes

even the stuff from usa and labeled as 'real orange juice' or whatever is basically the same thing as concentrate. i think once you pasteurized orange juice you lose any of the 'fresh fruit' beneficials anyway. so even if you buy the expensive tropicanica or whatever bullshit, the enzymes are zapped out of it anyway, so you might as well buy the cheap stuff. i just like the taste of orange juice, but health wise i know its little more then sugar water.

the only real orange juice is fresh squeezed, if consumed within 6 hours or so.
