I haven’t noticed a big increase in OJ prices. I pay $3.18 for the half gallon of Minute Maid.

A bunch that of lies. Notice how every glass of OJ from the same company always taste the same? It is because they use flavor packets. To preserve the juice for long term storage they remove all the oxygen which removes all the flavor. They add flavor back in via flavor packets

Yes. Orange juice isn’t.
I buy oranges (which are very expensive where I am in CO)
I am sure that’s closer to the real deal.

More climate nonsense
Orange production is down drastically in Florida because
1) citrus canker, which has infected FL orange trees for 15+ years
2) development - farmers selling out old groves for development
3) low carb/low sugar diets. Americans just don’t drink OJ like they used too.
4) Brazil - cheaper cost to produce, huge imports into USA (and they also suffer canker, just less)

I was in Spain.
In southern Spain they use orange trees to line streets.
I noticed no sign of citrus greening.
The oranges are not they type we would eat, but they look the same.
The Spanish trees might be suitable for rootstocks.
Last year someone here posted a link for genetically modified trees, but the trees were sold out.

3) low carb/low sugar diets. Americans just don’t drink OJ like they used too. You might as well drink a can of Coke.

It made my day seeing this as the first response. It would have pretty sad if it didn’t get in the thread
