nothing beats simply orange right now, but five alive gets bonus points for being referenced in the lyrics of a hold steady song

No love for Sunny D? It's got like 5% real fruit juice. I drink a 64 ouncer of that shit when I have a cold because viruses can't live in my body with so much of that orange syrup coursing through my veins. Cured.

Right? It tastes like orange sherbet, even leaves like a waffle cone aftertaste or something. Horrible stuff.

Five Alive is delicious. Personally, I have an issue with the way orange juice dominates the juice market. I get pissed when I stop somewhere for a bottle of juice and there are about 36 different kinds of orange juice selection and not even one pineapple. I always thought orange juice was just cheaper, but when I compare prices, the various juice blends (pineapple/orange/bananna is best) or even just pineapple juice is no more expensive than orange. Do people really prefer orange that strongly that it dominates the juice market so completely?

My only issue with orange juice is the ultra-pulpy stuff. It's like chunky peanut butter for me. If I wanted peanuts I would eat a handful of peanuts and if I wanted to be finding chunks of orange in my teeth for the next hour I would just eat an orange and pass the whole juicing process by.

I can't believe they are defending themselves and the statement they posted to facebook.

If you decide to get a turntable, I'd suggest getting one that will actually sound decent.

While I appreciate what Jack White/Third Man are doing, I think you're better off spending a bit more and getting something other than a Crosley, such as a Music Hall - USB-1 - USB/DJ Turntable, which is about $240-250. I haven't played one of the USB Music Halls, but they are known for making good stuff, especially for the price point they are at.

YMMV

even if you're looking for a compact/portable turntable, numark has a tremendous one that's cheaper.

nobody · **Posted:** Tue Dec 13, 2011 6:39 pm

Or for that $150 bucks, pick up a used table for $50 and smack a new needle on it for a bit more and you're gonna get way better sound.

I know I'm late to the juice conversation, but has anyone else noticed that it's damn hard to find 100% cranberry juice? Even the stuff that says 100% juice is only part CRANBERRY, and mostly apple juice.
