[edit] Seriously

"I personally think that Orange Juice is the best of all fruit juices." I'm going to remove that. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.217.35.132 (talk) 02:51, 14 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Guy Smiley?

Why does it say that "Guy Smiley" is a method of juice preparation? Am I missing something?


Animal juice?

[edit] maybe meat juice is more appropriate

I do not think this reflects a worldwide view.

I'm not sure exactly what you mean - the drinking of meat juice is pretty uncommon, but meat is definitely spoken of as having juices. WilyD 19:14, 20 June 2006 (UTC)
Juice as in similar to fruit juice? Or more like blood and liquid fats? I've never perceived 'meat juice' as any sort of inherent liquid flavor to meat (other than blood and fats). Hmmm 32.97.110.142 15:34, 7 March 2007 (UTC)Piepants

[edit] History?

Can someone knowledgable on the subject add a history of juice? I know it's a wierd thing to ask for but I want to know, and it's not in the article. :( Jtrainor 11:56, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Concentrate juice

I propose the addition of this information which is taken from FDA. If you second this proposition sign you name and feel free to be WP:BOLD and add the information.

  • 100% Pure or 100% Juice
Guarantees only 100 percent fruit juice, complete with all its nutrients. If it's not there, it's not all juice.
  • "Cocktail," "Punch," "Drink," "Beverage"
Terms which signify diluted juice containing less than 100 percent juice, often with added sweeteners.
  • Fresh Squeezed Juice
Squeezed from fresh fruit. It is not pasteurized and is usually located in the produce or dairy section of the grocery store.
  • From Concentrate
Water is removed from whole juice to make concentrate; then water is added back to reconstitute to 100 percent juice or to diluted juice such as lemonade.
  • Not From Concentrate
Juice that has never been concentrated.
  • Fresh Frozen
Freshly squeezed, and packaged and frozen without pasteurization or further processing. It is usually sold in plastic bottles in the frozen food section of the grocery store and is ready to drink after thawing.
  • Juice on Unrefrigerated Shelves
Shelf-stable product usually found with canned and bottled juices on unrefrigerated shelves of your store. It is pasteurized juice, or diluted juice, often from concentrate, packaged in sterilized containers.
  • Canned Juice
Heated and sealed in cans to provide extended shelf life of more than one year.

Oppose on the grounds they are specific to one country. These are not international definitions. --Herne nz 08:08, 9 April 2007 (UTC) Currently in the article are references to the UK's standards, and mentions of trends in many countries besides the US. International does not mean "every country besides the United States." If some subset of these definitions cannot be included, then none of the other references to countries like the UK, Australia, Bulgaria, Norway, or Spain should be there. --207.207.83.18 19:23, 12 May 2007 (UTC)


I agree that this information should be added, but should there not be some reference to smooth fruit juice and juice with juicy bits?? NMO

[edit] overweight kids?

surely juice is a factor responsible for overweight children, not a sole reason. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 88.108.76.216 (talk) 20:34, 3 May 2007 (UTC).
