I used to hate Orange Juice with a passion, but that's changed over the last few months. It's seriously grown on me!

I prefer grapefruit juice----something with a kick. That said, I squeeze three oranges for two breakfasters every morning. 

Yes, if you make it yourself, or watch it being made, lots of Florida Orange Shippers/vendors do exactly that...it is probably safe...

Mack's Groves used to have those juice-bar type stores in Pompano Beach! The best! The real deal!

Lots of those commercial vendors employ pretty shabby practices for their production.  ;)

HalBlaineIsGood speaks of the infamous "gallon jug" - as children we didn't know there was anything better...our parents prided themselves in the fact that they saved 15 cents by buying this atrocity of breakfast juice. Day after day we glugged down this high-fructose-laced milky-textured slightly-orange-tasting substance....(I hear the "gallon jug" is used at Guantanamo Bay as a subtle, yet effective, way to break the spirits of those imprisoned). The day came when we were in college, late night food raid at the local 7-11...hot pockets, oreos, red bull, whatever else our late-night munchies pleaded for. We walked to the refrigerated section, on a whim you bought a small orange juice container labeled with strange words such as "High Pulp" "No Added Preservatives" "100% Pure Florida Orange Juice"...after just one swig you never looked back to the gallon jug.

That right-of-passage to becoming a man? It's not about that night you lost your virginity, it's not about that day you yourself became financially secure...it's the day you became untethered from the surly bonds of the "gallon jug".

That right of passage to parenthood? That begins when you pass up the opportunity to buy the Simply Orange "high pulp" blend and go back to the "gallon jug" just to save 15 cents.

It's a treacherous circle of sadistic deceit...a circle that will never cease until the last orange is squeezed.

I can't stand Orange jucie with bits in it, got to be smooth all the way.

I Love Orange Juice.  And not just in the morning, all day.  My favorite is the "other" Florida 100% Pure Premium, NEVER from Concentrate, (and my brand label adds - Kosher for Passover) - Tropicana HOMESTYLE, some pulp (which I can't vote for in the poll, as it's not listed).  Comes in 59 FL OZ and a bigger one (but not a gallon) classic plastic bottle.  When I was a kid it always came in glass bottles, same crappy OJ disguised as quality.  Or the waxy cartons - the 15 cents cheaper kind (even less quality), but always Only from Concentrate.  TANG gets the honorable mention though - 'cause NASA made it The Most Popular for Everybody!  And that only needed tap water.  Reading that back to myself shows halblaineisgood is having an influence on all of us.  btw Don't they still make cereal in those variety packs - with perforated cardboard boxes for camping and kids?

Not an album, but a single. My favorite song of 2014 so far, in fact: "Orange Juice" by Stanley Brinks & the Wave Pictures. I believe I linked to it in the 2014 new releases thread.

Richard Manuel wrote a song called "Orange Juice Blues (Blues for Breakfast)"

There was a Scottish indie/new wave/post punk band in the 80s called Orange Juice. They broke up after having a couple of minor UK hits but mostly languishing in obscurity for a decade. Then out of nowhere in `92, the former frontman  Edwyn Collins scored a huge international smash with "A Girl Like You".

A friend of mine said it should be in the jukebox of every bar on earth. That sounds like a good idea to me. Great song.

What about the rapper "OJ the juice man"? ;D

I drank some orange juice last night.

Someone apparently "accidentally" bought low pulp. Let me tell you, it was wrong. All wrong.

No.

Nope.

Nuh-uh, you've got it all wrong.

Observe my corrections.

Yep, that's the basic opinion of people I know outside the board. They like either grape, apple or cherry juice. Seriously, this board is a big revelation for me in terms of everything. Good to know I'm not alone on my OJ preference.

Thanks to hal for the info on "Florida Natural", that was very fascinating. But what about California? I read that the lion's share of America's orange cultivation leads there. So what are some famous juice trademarks in Cali? The state isn't dubbed "Golden" for nothing, right? And generally, let's face it, Florida doesn't even come close to awesomeness which is California, hands down the best state of America.

2the captain: tbh, I decided to check your 2014 releases topic later, in 1 sitting. That said, you got me intrigued with that Orange Juice song. Will give it a listen today.

Well, TBH Orange Juice is no favourite of mine, even if it is growing on me. Grape Juice is actually my favourite lol

Please leave my thread.

Fine. You know what? I'ma start my own orange juice thread, and it's gonna be legendary. Everyone will forget about this one; it clogs up the subject column as is.

If it's orange juice war you want, it's orange juice war you got.

Had some orange juice for breakfast on Saturday while out at my nearest Pancakes R Us (terrible name, good food).

I also had some mid-day today because i was REALLYBORED

You son of a bitch. My father came up with the name 'Pancakes R Us.'
Are you insulting my father's honour? Is that what you're doing?

Apple Juice is better.
