Prairie Farms Orange Juice (1/2 Gallon Jug)

Item Purchased: Prairie Farms Orange Juice (1/2 Gallon Jug)
Location Purchased: 7-Eleven / 1350 S. Halsted / Chicago, IL
Price: $2.39 + tax

Review: After being sick for nearly three weeks with a sinus infection, I am closely attuned to putting good things into my body in attempts to stave off any further bouts of congestion or other bodily complications. I'm sure I will begin to neglect all aspects of this post-illness health kick in a few days, but for now, vitamin C is one of the good things I am consciously ingesting on a daily basis. This is why I decided to buy an entire half-gallon of OJ to keep in the refrigerator at work.

Prairie Farms Orange Juice is only a step or two above a sugar-orange drink such as Tang or Sunny D. I'm not quite sure what the percentage of actual fruit juice is, but I would guess slim to none. If you let a can of Fanta go flat then squeeze a lemon slice into it of an added zing, you would have a pretty good approximation of Prairie Farms OJ. Also, when it comes to orange juice, I am a pulp kind of a guy. Since Prairie Farms tastes as if they use one orange per 20 gallons of finished juice-like-product, there is no pulp to be found.

On the bright side of the orange grove, the price cannot be beat. I usually pay close to $4 for a half-gallon of OJ. The @2.39 price tag for PFOJ is not only a deal, but proof positive that you pay for what you get.

Rating: 2.25 / 5

That sounds impressively vile. Flat Fanta is wretched. I'm a no-pulper, but that sounds too dead even for my tastes.
