    Concentrate could be months old and sent overseas frozen, where a few years down the track you buy it in a bottle and think it is only a few days old from your own country, having being picked only a few days ago. We in Australia, have a clever orange juice company, that advertises, that they daily squeezed oranges, so customers think, that the juice is only a few days old that they are drinking. The company maybe right, they may sqeeze oranges daily, however, it does not mean how long they store the juice that they sell. Next of couse, where do they get the oranges in winter? I presume from o/s from concentrate! I suppose some where in the world on any day, someone must be sqeezing oranges for their juice. I knew a dairy farmer, sorry to get off the track, but he told me, if fresh milk has to be transported several hundred Kms away, the companies will extract the water from the milk and add the same amount of water when it gets to it's destination.

    Juice is made by squeezing the liquids out of a fruit. That defines the "Fresh squeezed" juice. After pressing, the juice can be collected, blended with additives, de-watered, frozen and packed into cans. This concentrated juice mix can then be made back into a juice again by adding water. It never tastes the same as the original juice when fresh.

    It's like night and day. Fresh pressed is just that, oranges that are cut in half and they squeeze the juice out of them. Juice from concentrate is juice that has been extracted by heat from oranges and reduced in moisture content and then they add water back to it and cook it. Yuck!

    i avoid a carton that says "from concentrate". i don't want water added to anything, I would prefer the moisture from inside the fruit. sure it's a little extra money but i enjoy good o.j. with my vodka
