Random stuff
Companies are starting to release more natural juice type stuff products. It’s really sad that the labels have to remind us that natural juices settle, and they don’t necessarily taste the same exact way each time due to natural variation. We’re so used to fruit drinks as solutions, we’ve forgotten fruit juices are actually suspensions.*
Found out what Panel De Pon is (aka Tetris Attack). A couple of friends are crazy good at it, and have to give me about a four level difficulty handicap to make things semi-competitive, even considering my experience in video game-fu.
Another buddy has started getting into Go, and he went to a club in his area for the first time when I visited him. We played a game that weekend, which I won. I’m gloating now, because that will likely be the last game that’s competitive. Next time around, it’s likely that some sort of handicap will start looking mighty good.
HAAHAHAHAH oh man…I didn’t know you didn’t know what it was yet.
If you look at the labels, sometimes high fructose corn syrup and water are the first ingredients, and the actual fruit juice is like, the third ingredient. it’s interesting. I spent $12 on 2 gallons of OJ the other day. Glad my car doesn’t run on juice.

100% juices are definitely more expensive, although apple juice isn’t too bad. Juicy Juice almost always has apple juice as the primary ingredient, which is why they’re less expensive than the flavor might indicate.
“Made from real juice” is a red flag. That usually means 3-10% juice.
