Produce is pretty pricey nowadays... I can't imagine normal brained
folks paying good money for fruit and veggies only to turn it into
compost. And I work too hard and invest too many resources to juice
the produce I grow.

For a lot less money, no machine to buy/operate, and a lot less labor
one can buy all kinds of perfectly good fruit and veggie
juices/nectars already prepared and in handy dandy containers at the
stupidmarket. Most Hispanic markets sell all kinds of fresh tropical
fruit nectars for very reasonable prices... frozen concentrate too.
And it's sacriligious to juice melons, just the thought gives me the
willies.
