I just want juice, is that so much to ask?

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.

Apple and grape are the same

8oz of Welch grape juice has 35g sugar. 20oz of classic coke has 65g sugar. Adjusted for volume, that’s 26g/8oz. Somehow fucking coke has less sugar. Apple is ironically the same as coke at 53g per 16oz

Juice

Our juices are a delicious, nutritious way to treat yourself with every sip.

They are, however, made of the fruit they’re named after with little sugar added. That 8oz is about half a pound, and half a pound of grapes is calorically comparable. I’d guess that the apple/juice situation is similar but it’s harder to ascertain because of variation.

We’ve cultivated tree candy, and I can’t see it any other way.
