Codymoogle Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 Juice boxes are the best way to drink juice if you're not drinking it from a bottle or a sippy cup. It just tastes so much better somehow. Link to comment
WakkoWannaBe Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 Oh my goodness how did I never think of getting juice boxes? xD I might have to try that because I LOVE APPLE JUICE! Link to comment
Baby Brian Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 I used to love juice boxes until I started realizing how much sugar is in them (not to mention the added chemicals, artificial colors and flavors, etc). The best part was when I was done drinking them, then blow them up and stomp on them. Boom! Link to comment
WakkoWannaBe Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 yes! I did that all the time with that one tropical punch drink. It was more of a juice bag than a juice box. God, what was that stuff called? Link to comment

WakkoWannaBe Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 I've seen people chop an apple in half, hollow it out, and serve apple cider in it! Link to comment

Codymoogle Posted September 19, 2014 Author Share Posted September 19, 2014 With my luck, I'd probably spill that all over the place, but it's so pretty looking. Yummy looking too! Link to comment
WakkoWannaBe Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 Yeah. Plus I'd want way more cider than can fit in an apple =p. I MUST DRINK IT ALL! Link to comment
Baby Brian Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 The juice industry has lobbied to get a lot of leeway for what constitutes 100% juice. Most of it is derived from apple cider juice. It's mostly just concentrated apple syrup with very little actual apple taste. They then go back and add citric acid or other "natural" flavors to make it taste like grape, orange, etc. Hate to say it but if you think they get 100% juice by squeezing some fruit then bottling it, *you're (edit) greatly misinformed.

Kodachi96 Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 I love juice boxes, I try to find the ones with low sugar. I actually found some that are coconut juice mixed with regular juice. I like them. Coconut juice is low in sugar and high in potassium. They have big box of coconut juice or small ones. Depending on how much you drink. I also have a sippy cup that makes it all more fun drinking things. Link to comment
Baby Brian Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 I'm not sure if this was directed to me or just a general statement, but I don't think this. Link to comment
Codymoogle Posted September 20, 2014 Author Share Posted September 20, 2014 It was a general statement. And yes most big manufacturers make them this way. I'm privy to some of the inside info for a lot of different industries since I'm an electrical designer, so I do know what I'm talking about. Don't just take my word for it, go see for your self.

justagirl4fun Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 Juice boxes are ok but you know what I really love? The little Hugs fruit barrels. Yes, it's all sugar and artificial coloring but mmm so good. They remind me of summer days spent at the beach or at my aunt's pool, because that's the only time my parents would buy them for us.

Kodachi96 Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 Those were the fun days. If I remember to buy any gerber baby juice, the apple/grape or the cherry/apple. I make sure its the ones with the small tops. Cause you unscrew them and can put a baby bottle top on them. Link to comment
