Ontario Apple Juice [General]

2011 Nov 7
I don't usually buy apple juice because most of the concentrates come from China. These days, you can find cans of Allen's Apple Juice special edition, made from Ontario Apples. I am stocking up because it won't last.
99 cents at Metro.

Thanks for the heads up! Is it the Allen's "from concentrate" version, or the "not from concentrate" version?

Funny you say this I used to buy a lot of Apple Juice for my children, when they first started to eat and drink. They are now over 2.5 years old and drink water, etc. I bought mostly the Rougemont brand which I assumed was from the Rougemont region of Quebec. I just went to their website and see this brand is made by A. Lassonde who also make Allen's (www.alassonde.com). In anycase, Costco has great deals on the 1.5 L bottles of Rougemont Apple juice (4 bottles for between $8-10 (often on sale for a little under $8 - that's when I would stalk up ...). Also, the Leah's Applesauce, which I also assume is Canadian (from Quebec?) is another great deal offered by Costco. You can get 3 large jars for around $5 and about 24-20 small individual small container servings of Applesnax (some are pure apple, others are apple peach, apple strawberry, etc.) for about $8. These are items I generally feel good about buying ...!

not from concentrate "from fresh apples"

I always thought the canned apple juice was a mix or asian and North American apples and they did not have to label it as so, if it contained more Canadian apples?

I just do not like apple juice- even as a kid always hated it.

I prefer apple cider. And for apple sauce I think I would rather put an apple in the micrawave and mash that up.
But I guess that is not always convenient...
