I feel the same way most of the time, but other times I take pride in my ability to rise above the Great Unwashed and discover the truth. And I should be rewarded for that ability.

Would'ja really feel less intelligent by comparison if the juice were properly labeled?

Misrepresented or misinterpreted?

If it says 100% juice and I read 100% juice, then I see no crime.

'tard, did you buy the juice?

Did it taste like you think Cran-Raspberry should taste?

Have you ever had juice extracted solely from Cranberries and Raspberries?

I thought this was a thread about steriods...such a letdown. lol

I stopped drinking that shit about 10 years ago....and really it is just overpriced sugar.

Buy a juicer and use real fruit to make juice. It tastes so much better. Just add water until you get the sweetness u want.

Are you sure u didn't get the Cran-Apple instead? lol

It's kinda like a website that claims to be 100% porn. Well, when you click on it, you get 80% gay porn mixed in with 20% donkey bj's.

You dont get that 100% taste you wanted.

I didn't buy the juice, it wasn't what it said on the label in front.

I have had pure juice blends, in fact, my favorite is a Grape/Cherry Welch's blend that has...get this: Grape and Cherry juice. Radical, I know.

There's lots of pure cranberry juice you can buy

Doesn't taste all that great, but it's an acquired taste for some.
