    you can still get frozen concentrate. but what was once 2 or 3 doors worth of freezer section in the grocery store is now just one or two shelves.

      I still get it. I feel like it saves space and trips to the store, and plastic waste.

      But yeah it’s much less popular than it was in the 80s. Not sure why that shift occurred. People don’t want extra work maybe.

        Buying the juice feels more “natural” and the American consumer has a section that wants to eat healthy without actually buying produce.

          lol but even the bottles say it’s from concentrate. So I don’t get it. And it’s more expensive to ship. Water is heavy.

            the higher profit margin “not from concentrate” also exists and is what’s advertised more.

            That’s why I said “feels” and not “is.”
