I have big arse orange and grapefruit trees, and an awesome breiville citrus juicer. I only drink oj from oranges straight off my trees. Takes about 30 of them for one pitcher. I like to pick them in the am when they are still cold so we don't need ice. Deeeelicious.
The good lord gives us oranges fresh off the tree during cold and flu season-brilliant!

how many trees do you have ? How old are they ? what type of orange tree is it ? where do you get them ? What's it take to grow them and keep them healthy, etc ?

One orange and one grapefruit. We prune them after we pick all the fruit and before they flower. We prob should fertilize but haven't for the past two years. I have hundreds of oranges. The trees are about ten years old. My grandmother planted one in her yard as a tiny little plant and seven years later she has just as many as me. She got hers from fresh pickens. Mine is just a normal orange tree, nothing fancy. They are medium size. Was here when we moved in.

My dad has satsuma trees that are less than 10 years old and make thousands of satsumas every year. He bought them at a nursery and fertilizes and waters them.

Any just think how many nasty hands have handled that lemon that is sliced and floating in your iced tea.

waiters spend all night finger banging nasty skanks and the first thing they have to do when they get to work is cut lemons

BFD, gee, I'm shocked. Same retard that will eat a McRib, is worried about flavor enhancers in orange juice?

The ONLY way you will ever get exactly pure products is to grow or raise it yourself. Other than that, go wet your panties over legislators getting the rights to tickets. Same as you did every other year LSU played in a bowl.

I'm assuming you are responding to someone else since I've never eaten a McRib, don't drink orange juice and hope the legislators bus runs into lake Pontchatrain.

Do the legislators get the opportunity to buy their juice before it goes into the million-gallon holding tanks?

Easy solution, just mix it with Grey Goose. The OJ tastes better and the alcohol kills anything nasty. Win-win.

I don't see what the big problem is. Yeah it's marketed in a certain way but the stuff is still good and good for ya. Those milfs in the article need to relax or buy a juicer and buy organic. We got to feed 7 billion people on this planet.

Exactly - I can't stand the facebook moms who get all worked up on this shite. People act so surprised that their food isn't 100% natural. Hey genius, if we grow fresh food, pick it, distribute it, process it, pack it, ship it, stock it, and then sell it to you 3000 miles from where it originated...we're going to have to cut a few corners to keep it fresh, you moron.

*Not "we" as in I grow oranges or anything. You get the point.

Anyways, this shite is the best tasting juice ever:

From concentrate is fine by me.

The whole "natural" and "no chemicals" thing sweeping diners' mind is ridiculous. Everything we eat is composed of chemicals, doesn't matter how fresh or "natural" it is. I don't care if my chemicals are produced in a lab or in nature. If they taste good and are healthy, who cares? On a microscopic level, they are the same thing.

BTW, adding flavoring packets to OJ, flavoring that consists of orange peels, is hardly eye popping. Makes me want to drink a big glass of OJ that has been sitting in storage for a year in honor of the Clark Griswalds of the world who have made such technological advances that allow us to eat and drink healthy foods months and years after they otherwise would have gone bad.
