Yeah, like the commercials for Sunny Delight (orange "drink") Ever read the
label on a bottle of that stuff? Or those juice boxes, which are nothing
more than a marketing ploy to sell artificially flavoured juices made with
high fructose corn syrup, in a *box* with a straw. Big whup.

You know you're getting old when you start using the phrase "when I was a
kid..." but it's true. Mom gave us 100% orange juice. If we wanted orange
juice with our lunch, it was put in a thermos in our lunch box. I usually
took a thermos of milk instead because I don't care for orange juice unless
it has a healthy shot of vodka in it And no, I'm not calling that an
"orange martini"
