Gawd, that's all we ever had!

It’s a good ingredient. I don’t know what it tastes like as a drink

So is the OJ giving you the reflux or the vodka…

Certainly it's the oj, but the fresh squeezed doesn't do that.

It’s a completely different beast isn't it.

I miss frozen concentrated orange juice.

I miss frozen concentrate tangerine juice. Used love that.
Can’t find tangerines (they pass off clementines as them). I used tangerines in a cranberry tangerine quick bread and my uncooked cranberry relish. Now I have to use oranges.
Can’t find Valencia oranges either. Only damn dried, out pregnant navel oranges.

Weirdly it's available on Amazon but not sure how perishable items can be sent that way and be cost effective.

Probably Amazon Fresh they deliver fresh food within hours.

When I had Covid Sunny D was the only thing I could drink.
Never had it in my life.
And hopefully never will again.

Man! That stuff is sweet!
But I figured it was better than living on water.

I know that I've made mention of this before, but all of the Hawaii based food goods that we love and use in dishes, I CAN NOT GET... well, if I want to drive a few hours this way or that ... OR ...
just yesterday I was looking to get some Kamaboko shipped to us here in Cowboyville Arizona USA --- the product was the same price as the shipping!!! NOPE!!
We have to drive down to The Big City next month for a doctors appointment for DH, I'll wait till then and make a special point to go food shopping there.

Back when I was much younger, it was used in some kind of punch too.

It's still available here as well.

I miss frozen concentrated orange juice.

There used to be this juice made by Welch’s called Berry Sunsplash. It was probably mostly high fructose corn syrup and artificial flavour, but it was so good. We called it red juice. I miss it!

Also, bitter lemon. Apparently it’s quite popular in the UK but very hard to find here.
