If you have ever squeezed your own orange juice, you probably know that it takes about eight oranges to produce one glass. Every orange has about a teaspoon of sugar in it, but that means that a glass of orange juice has about 8 teaspoons of sugar!
This Fox News piece claims that a glass of orange juice has more sugar than a soda!
Of course, there are benefits to fresh squeezed orange juice (vitamin C), but when you think about all that sugar, it makes a fresh orange sound a lot more appetizing; you won't eat as much sugar, you'll still get all the vitamins and you'll get fiber too!
