I love Florida's Natural orange juice. It actually tastes like oranges!! Imagine that. I've been drinking it every night with dinner for a few years now. I like the no pulp version with calcium and vitamin D, so I get a little extra nutrition along with it. I also drink it after long rides as a tasty recovery drink.
But the grocery store I shop at (Harris Teeter) decided Florida's Natural doesn't make enough money for them so they stopped selling it. I asked someone in the dairy department why it was gone, and he was surprised because he said it sells well. But a manager told me it's "not a first tier brand" so they got rid of it to make room for more Tropicana and their own store brand.
I am SO not happy about this!!!
I tried Simply Natural because it was on sale, but it's not as good and is too expensive at regular price. I just opened a carton of Minute Maid and it's so nasty I think I might dump the whole 1/2 gallon down the drain. I won't even consider Tropicana -- I already know I don't like that. And the store brand's version of the calcium-enriched juice doesn't have any vitamin D, so never mind with that.
This means I now have to go to a second grocery store just to get juice.![]()
I think I need to write Harris Teeter a letter...
