Musings from my mind...

because not all great minds think alike.

I was asked to participate in the Juicy Juice Influencer program with CafeMom... and received my coupons in the mail. Since we had to run to the store to grab some more milk- I picked some of the juice up as well. We tried the first variety today with our lunch- thus, my product review has been provided. :0)

Today, we tried the Juicy Juice Immunity Berry Juice. Overall, I am not impressed. For the most part- $2.99 for 33.8 fluid ounces is not much of a bargain. The serving suggestions on the back state a serving is 8 fluid ounces... and only 4 total servings in the product. Word of caution- the pouring spout pulls out of the container easily... But, since this was my second try- I was able to open it without breaking it. :0)

I found the juice in the juice isle at our local grocer. We were able to choose from either Apple or Berry flavors. Sadly, unlike regular Juicy Juice, this is not 100% juice- but rather 70%. Apple juice was the main ingredient and was obvious in the flavor. However- my kids enjoyed the berry mix more than the Grape flavor they had previously tried. It was light in color, thus staining isn't going to be a problem.

This juice doesn't contain any surprise ingredients, such as fish oil (as does the brain development brand). Each serving contains 100% daily allowance of Vitamin C, but only 12% fiber and 10% zinc- which it its big claim on the front. The fiber for digetive health and Vitamin's C and Zinc for Immunity. Sadly, these are the same numbers included in other juices I found on the shelves- for much less of a price.

Thank you Cafemom- for the coupons. This isn't something that I would have tried with out them- due to the price. However, I am fully resolved that this isn't the best product for my family.

Thanks for posting!  I got my coupons today and picked up the DHA juice while I was at the store but I haven't tried it yet.  They didn't have the immunity one in stock.

Soooo... pretty much, it's not even pure juice, and their added vitamins don't even beat out the natural vitamins that are normally in cheaper and healthier juices?  Plus, overpriced and crappy-made, and advertised for an age group that would get more benefit from a healthy diet and breastmilk?

Go Nestle.  Dumbasses.
