Nestle Juicy Juice Kiwi-Strawberry

[skysidhe]

ok well....it does have juice but when buying a 100% of a particular flavor you might just be getting a whole lot of apple juice mostly.

2. What makes Juicy Juice 100% juice?

Regulations allow for the addition of non-juice ingredients to a 100% juice product if they do not decrease the amount of juice soluble solids.


Sorry. I am a juice snob.

I'm even more of one: I think all fruit juice is sickeningly sweet. Didn't like it when I was a kid, either. No one in my house drinks straight juice except for my stepkids.

I agree. It IS sweet. Sometimes I try to drink 100 blueberry/cranberry or pomegranate for my health but my taste buds rebel.

That's why I think selling kids apple diluted drinks with a cute name kids cheat them out of the whole sweet tang experience of 100 percent real other flavors.

I can do 100 % grape juice once a year or so and I love unfiltered hard pressed apple juice you can buy around harvest time. Sometimes I crave it. Infact just thinking about it makes me thirsty. It's delicious.

Not only that. I didn't think kids needed a cute name to drink juice.

I believe the mix is 100% juice, but not necessarily the juice you think you're getting ... probably mostly apple juice (higher sweetness) regardless of flavor. I don't have any containers, so I can't verify.

EDIT: I see that skysidhe has beaten me to this nugget of information.

Same fruit they use to make Juicy Fruit gum.
