Disappointed

Ailz- who has been educating herself on the skulduggery perpetrated by food companies and supermarkets- tells me the "fresh" orange juice I drink for breakfast contains as much sugar as coca-cola and is quite as worthless nutritionally. "Basically, just sugar water," she says.

And I thought I was doing myself so much good...

We bought a fruit press a couple of years back and I had a go at making apple juice- but it was such hard work...

We had a huge crop the first year we were here and stored them as they were in the garage and they lasted months. We ate a lot of apple pie that winter.

I bought a fruit press last year and used it - but it was as much out of a sense of nostalgia as anything. And it was a LOT easier making grape juice where I could just put in the rinsed clusters of grapes and it took little effort to turn the handle.
