I was permanently banned from the Reddit sub without recourse for posting this despite not breaking any rules. I'm slowly making the migration over thanks to such encouragement.

Pretty much the same thing as the "juice cocktails" they have in the juice isle that are fruit juice and sugar water. "Made with real fruit juice!" (like ten percent).

I always squint at meat products that claim something like "made with 100% real chicken." Yeah okay, there is chicken in there, but how much of the food consists of that 100% real chicken?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 8 months ago

Yeah, apparently the chicken in there is a hundred percent real, even if only two percent of the product is chicken.

I’ve been buying fruit juice recently after staying away from all that sugar for a lot of years, and I’m sad to find out that most fruit juice in my grocery is corn syrup. Even with being willing to pay more, it can be difficult to find sweetened with fruit juice or even sugar

At least in Denmark it's illegal to use the word 'juice' if there's any sugar water in it. If I see a juice on the self I can be certain it is 100% juice (maybe made from concentrate but that must be written somewhere). If it's not then it is "nektar"

[–] [email protected] 4 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Yeah, have to stay away from the "cocktails" and stick with 100% juice. On the other hand, even most of those have a lot of apple, pear, and grape juice added, which are all very, very sweet. There's more sugar in apple juice than in soda, it's just the kind of sugar that's different.

For me, I have a weight problem so sugar is sugar: I don’t need empty calories. However my kid does not, so I care what kind of sugar he gets his calories from

Understandable, though I'm not sure there's any agreement that fructose is healthier than sucrose.

How bout thems glass bottles that’re straight juice? Often organic, and expensive. Can dilute with water and put on ice… and sweeten yourself if needed.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago) (1 children)

I’ve gotten those a few times as well. Very expensive. I’m willing to pay more but those are a lot more. It doesn’t help the they seem to want to outdo each other on how “different” the juice can be. Some of the combination are truly awful (but they’re all “superfoods”, why shouldn’t we put them together?)
