    I don't drink juice unless I want to take a nap. That stuff knocks me out.

    It's not the juice, it's the extra liquid you add to it.

    false, eat whatever you want just do it in moderation, it's true some of those might have chemicals in them and be worse than some other similar products, but there's no rule of what to avoid.

    I actually was bored enough one day to watch the dreaded infomercial and his arguments against soy and corn are the high degree of gmo s that make up the bulk of the crops and the high degree of processing in those foods, wheat bread has too many chemicals in it unless homemade and the wheat used in commercial bakeries is highly refined, margarines problem is the oils used and the chemicals and refinements that goes into it. Fruit juices have a lot of the nutrition taken out of them in the concentrating and the reconstituting processes. The take home message, besides buy my product, is to avoid highly processed foods. My rule of thumb is if I cant pronounce two or more ingredients, I pass.

    True, however, I think you meant corn additive, not corn on the cob.

    Industrialized "new wheat" is not healthy. It is stripped of all the fiber and the hull and is totally differnet than wheat 80 yrs ago. Some people thnk 100 percent whole wheat means healthy not so.

    Anytime there's a list like that, it's most likely false (unless it has arsenic and lead on it).

    True, margarine is full of trans fats, soy gives you cancer, and corn is horrible.

    These are things I would never knowingly eat.

    Margarine is basically plastic - you save nothing by using it instead of butter.

    Soy is high in estrogen and meant to be ingested in small quantities not like we do in North America. I can cause issues for men getting moobs and having issues with their testosterone for women - cancer. It can have some benefit for menopausal women because of the estrogen qualitites though.

    Corn is frankenfood. Anything that is genetically modified with chemicals infused in it's DNA which cause insects stomachs to rupture doesn't really belong in my body.

    Organic products made from organic corn is ok to me, but regular corn related products _NO THANK YOU_

    Must be nice on your pedestal. Trying to advocate organic as if us peons don't get it because we just don't care about our health. I'm pretty sure it's because it costs 2-3x as much.

    I am always amazed at the arguments on here against food avoidance...like drug addicts trying to justify how good marijuana is for pain relief...whatever. I will stick with modern science.

    Eat what you want in moderation, but don't be surprised when you have health issues in the future because the OJ spikes your blood sugar or the soy suppresses your thyroid function...or the trans-fats in the margarine causes colon cancer. These things are not food, but processed crap that society has become addicted to just like drugs and research is showing it is causing all kinds of health issues. Use it at your own peril and don't say you were not warned. Everyone is going to die, but I don't want to die before my time or from any of the above aliments because it is a miserable way to go.

    The jury is still out on corn, but I eat it, I love tortilla chips, but they are pretty addicting.

    Beets are not nasty...they are amazing. Margarine is nasty. Use organic butter.
