Tropicana...is it as freshly squeezed as it claims?

[Tefal]

M&S was always better then Tropicana though Raymond.

M&S make godly food, unfortunately the nearest one is a long way off, although if one was close I'd now be fat and poor

Tropicana isn't from concentrate. It says so on the carton in front of me here.

It does all taste the same however I love their Sanguinello juice and nowhere else seems to sell it.

/sarcasm on
freshly squeezed defrosted oranges from south africa that have been sitting in the shop for 3 weeks can't beat them

/sarcasm off



Only way to get good OJ is to pick the things yourself.

Ill just go out to the orange tree...

I never actually had the pleasure to find out until I started this job and going there for my lunch (mainly for the Rasberry jelly) lately, just the last week or so I got the M&S one and my eyes have been opened !

tropicana is marketed as NOT from concentrate. I buy the stuff because of this reason, over the other stuff in supermarkets.

Try the M&S stuff, its in a clear 1 Litre plastic bottle with green cap, £2.49 per bottle and curently 2 for £4.

For the amount i drink, tropicana is a better option, i generally dont drink OJ for OJ sake, but for masking the taste of CEE!

But Tropicana is pasteursied which wrecks the taste. Try any UNpasteurised OJ to tell the difference, it's in a different league.

If you can find it (I think its seasonal), try their Freshly Squeezed Orange & Mandarin Juice.

This is just a guess, but I bet it's what God's ejaculate tastes like.

I saw that too ! next to the OJ.......will get them tomorrow, thanks for the tip.

Love Tropicana but I usually get M&S lunch and my choice of drink is usually their OJ which definitely tastes home made and "organic".

With such large scale productions like tropicana orange juice they will use select picks of batches of oranges in different quantities to maintain consistent levels of acidity, sweetness etc in each batch made.

In my town there is no M&S, there is a morrisons, sommerfield and Tesco, I love orange juice, which one is the best to get which they stock? And why exactly is juice from concentrate a bad thing?

 

[Peño]

Don't know about others, but I feel like I can taste chemicals in concentrate than from freshly squeezed. Also I think you lose most of the vitamins in concentrate.

Aye, I go through a carton every couple of days and cannot recall there ever being a noticeable difference between any of them. At least I know it won't be crap

 

[neil3k]

Tropicana is nom nom nom

 

[The Dread Pirate]

I prefer to get some oranges and make my own tbh

 

[gumbald]

I'd love to be able to drink M&S juice all the time, but I wouldn't be able to afford to clothe myself.

 

[DRZ]

I really hate the taste of Tropicana orange juice.

I don't know what it is about it but I find it to not be as drinkable as other juices (like M&S stuff, for example).

Is it cheaper or more expensive to make your own? If its cheaper I might invest in an orange juice maker rather than a PC upgrade
