2 things. 1 - Is it just me or is every bottle of grapefruit juice the ruby red kind now? I can’t even find the yellowy bitter kind anymore except out at bars when I order a greyhound. 2 - Trader Joes has a banana-orange-strawberry concoction that is just tastebud overload. ---

You can usually still find the old school grapefruit juice on the shelves, as opposed to the refrigerated juice section. If they don’t have it in bottles, look for the cans. ---

> [@Skald\_the\_Rhymer](#): > > What’s sad is that nobody makes banana milk any more. I blame the Turks. It’s still one of the three\* standard flavours in the UK- you can get at least one variety of bananana milk at any tiny corner shop 😃 You could just blend a bananana with some milk though- it doesn’t have quite the same artifically goodness, but it’s not that far out. \*strawberry and chocolate being the other two. ---

Hm, germandeli dot com used to sell the german banana milk mix, let me [check](http://search.germandeli.com/search?query=banana&x=0&y=0&vwcatalog=gdcom). Nope, though you might shoot them a query and see if they know where to get it. ---

Okay, it’s been a few years so I’m not sure of the spelling… peareachenappleanagrapanerry. Always figured it was made from the spillage and run-off after bottling all the other fruit juices. ---

I learned two sneaky things about “fruit juice”. #1 If you see the word “cocktail” on the label, that means it’s mostly water and sugar, with something like 5% actual fruit juice. #2 If it says anything about being a mix of more than one kind of juice, you can be confident that APPLE juice is in it, usually the main ingredient, even if it’s not listed on the label specifically. So “Mango Cranberry Juice” is probably mostly apple juice with a little bit of cranberry and mango, and “Mango Cranberry Cocktail” is probably water and sugar plus a small amount of actual juice including mango and cranberry and yes apple. ---

If apple juice isn’t listed in the ingredients, then it doesn’t have more than a very small amount of apple juice in it. Imagine the lawsuits they would face if they didn’t list ingredients and people who were allergic to them used the product. However, it might not be in the title or ‘headlines’, but it will certainly be on the label. ---
