Check their nutritional values... I don't think any of those products
are beneficially healthful to any meaningful degree. You are much
better off eating real fruit and vegies.

You gotta be pretty friggin' lazy to get your fruit as juice outta a
can... don't you have teeth, I bet you haven't been to a dentist since
3rd grade... how much effort is it to peel and chew a juicy navel
orange or a ruby red grapefruit. The market always has a selection of
beautiful fresh fruit and veggies... and you can see what you're
eating. Eating your fruit and veggies out of a can is tantamount to
eating pre ground mystery meat... they gotta do something with all the
buggy bruised rotting produce that's truly only fit for the
composter... squish it all up, strain out the maggots, can it, and
sell it to the pinheads. What a bunch of imbeciles, they'll eat shit
if it's served up in a purty package.
