My apple juice scares me
Not only do the ingredients feel the need to explain what "100% apple juice from concentrate" is, (filtered water and concentrated apple juice), but it also informs me that it "contains concentrate from Germany, Austria, Italy, Hungary, Argentina, Chile, China, Turkey, Brazil, and the United States". That's a lot of countrys' apples mixed together. o_o

1. I guess that means that
they buy their apples wherever they can get them cheap and mix it up. It also means you get to taste all kinds of pesticides and herbicides because I don´t think anything short of cianide is illegal in say China.
