    How were people brainwashed into thinking OJ was “healthy”? It’s the closest equivalent to natural candy I can think of. Tons of sugar offset by juicy acidity

        Whole fruit is healthy. The more processed you go, the less healthy it is. Interestingly, the more processed you go, the more calories you consume, too. You will eat more apple sauce than you will apples.

      I mean, there are still obvious health benefits; you’re going to get vitamins from OJ a can of soda will never give you. But, yeah, there are definitely, additionally, health detriments, as well.
