The other day I purchased some Innocent Orange Juice, personally I find Innocent products to be overrated and overpriced (my they are overpriced), but it was on special offer at just 90p for a bottle so it was actually about the cheapest jus available.
I had a choice between the smooth 'no bits' and the 'with bits' variety, and being a sophisticated individual I opted for with bits.
Upon pouring my first glass I realised my mistake, instead of the juice flowing smoothly into my glass it slopped out like a yoghurt that had been left in the sun for a month to become lumpier than a 13 year old dog.
At this point I realised when they say 'with bits' they really mean 'Orange juice without the bits removed plus all the bits we removed from the without bits juice also added'. This bottle must have had the bits from at least 10 bottles of juice added to it. I would have had more juice and fewer bits if I'd just eaten an orange.
To me this is outrageous, padding out the orange juice with all the waste products from the 'without bits' product is disrespecting customers and clearly a misrepresentation of the final product. If you can eat your glass of orange juice with a fork it is no longer juice.
