If the fruit is really sweet and nutritious, it seems to me all they really need is a good marketing campaign. Packaging the meat of the fruit and selling it seems easier than creating a while new process and selling that.

The pulp and juices are not wasted. It’s used for making soft drinks, jellies and a sweet liquor..............

The whole point of the article is that they waste the fruit and only use the seeds. It seems to me like a marketing problem.

Personally, I avoid sugary foods like fruit and chocolate. I don’t have a dog in this fight.

Many years ago I was visiting a supplier in Zurich. They took me to the Lindt factory store and told me to pick out all I wanted for free. I still love Lindt chocolate, though I can’t eat much sugar anymore.

I’m surprised to hear that the rest of the fruit hasn’t been used all along, if it’s as good as they’re saying.

No profit in the cure it’s how businesses operate.

That's why there will never be a cure for heart disease or cancer. There's too much money in treating them for life; if you cure them the "victims" don't need your product anymore.
