1 Sorting of ingredient list: the higher the front, the higher the content.
According to national regulations, the beverage ingredient list must be arranged from high to low according to the level of raw materials. That is to say, the higher the raw material is, the higher its content is. The following is the ingredient list of Xiaobian's real shots of various juice drinks in the supermarket:
Rock sugar Sydney: concentrated pear juice only ranks fourth, which shows that the juice content is low.
Fruit orange: orange meat and concentrated orange juice rank fourth and fifth.
RIO cocktail: concentrated lemon juice is only ranked fifth, with low juice content.
Ladies Jiabin mixed wine: Laoshan mountain spring water and juice rank in the top two, with high juice content.
2 Look at the name: juice or juice drink.
The Food Safety Law stipulates that the fruit juice content must be marked. If it is not marked, it is either 100% pure juice or an illegal product. If it is non-100% juice, the words "juice beverage" must be marked.
So as long as you see the word "beverage", the juice will say goodbye to 100%. The fruit-flavored beverage is a special beverage with low pulp content, which is far from the fruit juice.
Vitaminwater: It is labeled as a tropical fruit-flavored drink, which is a drink rather than a juice.
Bingrui Bacardi: Rum pre-mixed wine marked with lime flavor.
Ms. Jiabin: The bottle directly indicates that the juice content is greater than or equal to 15%.
Food additives are also extracted from nature.
When choosing drinks, if you see additives in the ingredients, don't deny them immediately. According to insiders, there is a saying that "sugar and acid are not separated" in the production process of fruit juice.
A certain amount of citric acid, malic acid, etc. will be added to the juice according to national regulations to ensure the taste of the product. Although these are additives, they are all extracted from natural fruits and vegetables.
