The Rise And Fall Of Orange Juice - Cheddar Explains

[@andersdenkend]

Most orange juice tastes like acid to me as a kid. Never liked it. Then, one day, I drank freshly pressed orange juice and was like "Damn, so that's how it's supposed to taste!".

[@brianhall4182]

Yes yes yes. This! I grew up in Florida where my grandparents had no less than 3 orange trees in their backyard. We'd get a regular supply of orange juice every season and it was fantastic. Everything sold in stores or restaurants is just the absolute worst in comparison. So sour, so acidic, so disgusting.

[@Mecánico358]

Yeah at malls in New York they have oranges in a vending machine where it squeezes fresh and you can take it home with you. Don’t really like oranges or the smell.

[@Vednier]

[@katherinekeller4149]

OJ was one of the banes of my existance as a child. Oranges tasted so good and sweet. That stuff my parents called OJ tasted like unripe oranges -- so sour and bitter. Eventually, after a lot of work, I was able to show my parents that other, better tasting juices were also legit sources of Vitamin C.

My great grandmother grew up during the Great Depression and she told us that it was considered a good Christmas when they received an apple and an orange in their stockings. And that’s all they would get. She said she would take hours to eat it to make it last as long as possible.

[@jheanelltabana8713]

Wow. And kids today complain that they have to eat them. I mean, so did I as a kid, and now I feel bad.

[@oh2sail]

I grew up in the 50s/60s and we always had an apple or orange in our stockings and made a big deal out of them even though we could eat them almost every day, because we knew of the Depression connection. My kids are in their thirties now, and they got excited over the fruit in the stockings while growing up. Their kids are just babies, but I know they’ll carry on the tradition I expect to the same level of excitement.

[@Loglestly]

My great grandfather told stories to us about oranges in their stockings too! Oranges and peanuts, to be specific. We've kept the tradition going ever since, and so for every Christmas, we're buying oranges and peanuts for the stockings. Glad to see that we're not the only ones who remember this tradition!

And even compared to other orange sodas, I find them to be probably the worst tasting (at least out of the more well-known brands). I was surprised to hear that they not only started off natural, but actually helped jump start the popularity of orange juice. Not that it makes me appreciate their orange soda more (though I gotta say, their non-orange sodas are pretty decent).

Here in Europe most oranges come from Spain and Italy, where (as far as I know) no such spikes in price have been observed. My breakfast always includes fresh fruit and during the winter that is most often Moro red oranges from Sicily. There are out-of-season oranges from places like South Africa but I avoid them: Out of orange season there are so many other fruits to choose from. It was mentioned that concentrate helps keep juice from changing taste. There's another big advantage though, concentrate doesn't just "not go bad", it is also concentrated so it is much easier to ship. Which means your juice from concentrate might well be from wherever in the world it's cheapest to produce orange juice concentrate .... Maybe during those price spikes it was actually the Spanish producers making a lot of money by exporting their concentrate to the American market?

[@zazaza903]

nice to hear that something from my country (S.Africa) is exported because we are one big hopeless economic failure 😂

[@kgw72]

Nope. If anything, prices dropped because too many people produced oranges here in Spain. Also, orange is a winter fruit. In fact, a popular song went: "loving you is magical, like eating oranges in summer". :)

[@fhs4137]

@@kgw72 Oranges are a summer fruit! The oranges start going bad when the season changes to winter; that's why they're so heavily harvested in december, and become cheap to buy as well. Historically, oranges were very expensive and seen as a magnificent treat. Most people could not afford oranges during the summer, and so regular people only got to have them when they were cheap in December. That is why so many Christmas/winter traditions revolve around the fruit. And also why it would be considered magical to have one during the summer - even though they're readily available. For the record, oranges start blooming in April, and bear fruit all the way until October-November. The trees start flowering in early December :)

[@pacopaco6054]

Spanish small orange producer here , so this season it's been better than usual but we are having a really bad time competing with africa and south america.

[@LaughterCigar]

@@fhs4137 Where are you from? I guess it depends on the variety, different varieties have different seasons. But in Spain oranges are mostly a winter fruit. By "season" we mean the period of time in which the fruit reaches its peak in both flavour and properties. For most of the varieties grown in Spain, that happens between October and May. That's when you start to see them in abundance in the supermarkets and fruit stores, and when they are the cheapest (and tastiest!). That's also the time when you see the orange trees (both man-grown and "wild") loaded with bright colourful oranges if you go to the countryside. There are still some varieties that ripen later, up until June. But most of the oranges you buy in the summer have either been collected months prior and stored in cold chambers (and thus are of lower quality) or come from places like South Africa and Argentina, in the Southern Hemisphere. So yeah, you can definitely say it's a winter fruit.

I used to drink Orange Juice daily until I watched a programme about how it's processed, stored for up to a year then flavour packs get added before it's packaged and shipped. This completely blew my image of Orange Juice being 100% natural as claimed by the packaging and other marketing so I decided to stop drinking it altogether. If the companies producing it were more honest then perhaps I'd still be drinking it sometimes but because I feel deceived I can't truly trust them any more.

If demand is going down, then the price will have to go down. The supermarket chains keeping prices high when less and less are buying would be at their own loss. Cheddar does not understand supply and demand apparently

[@zuiop9993]

Well, but stores don't make the same profit margin on every product on their shelves. If it is a product that consumer buy in large quantities stores typically acept lower margins. The products that take up valuable space but don't sell a lot have to be sold with a higher profit margin. They get you into the door with their cheap basic products and hope that you succumb to your desire to try out more profitable ones. So if Orange Juice becomes less popular it will get more expensive (even if we don't account for scaling effects of production and logistics). You can't break down every economic question to a simple question of supply and demand. Joseph Zeigler does not understand basic economics apparently.
