How do you like your orange juice?


This is gonna sound like blasphemy, but I like orange juice from concentrate like Hi-C or Tang. Sweet and without pulp.

Weird.

I don't know what Hi-C or Tang are like where you live, but I wouldn't consider those from concentrate where I am. To me, from concentrate is usually just the excess water removed, pasteurized, then frozen, and then water added back into it. I didn't think that Tang or Hi-C had any actual juice in them.

Maybe not, I could be wrong. Maybe Hi-C and Tang are just fruit flavored drinks. But still I prefer that to "natural" orange juice because that is kinda sour for my tastes....

"I didn't think that Tang or Hi-C had any actual juice in them."

Tang doesn't, but Hi-C does. The main ingredient in both of them is sugar/HFCS though. Hi-C has a little bit of orange juice and Tang cuts out the middle man and just uses straight citric acid. Neither one of them even remotely qualify as orange juice, and neither one of them is considered "concentrate." Hi-C comes ready to drink and Tang comes in powder form. Powder could technically be considered concentrated (as concentrated as is possible, i.e., no water), but that's not what the term normally refers to. Like you said, it normally means that some of the water was removed (meaning it's still a liquid, not a dry powder) and then frozen.

Orange juice from concentrate tastes bad IMO. Tang tastes okay, but nothing like orange juice (in the same way that orange soda tastes nothing like orange juice), and I don't think I've ever even had Hi-C.

So you're saying you like orange drink, not orange juice.
