What Happened to My Jugs?

I don't know about you, but when it comes to orange juice, I am loyal to one and only, and that's Tropicana.  As a kid, I didn't particularly care for o.j.  I can remember starting to LOVE it, however, in high school.  I also remember all the other brands out there that some of my friends' moms bought, like Sunny D and Minute Maid. Bleh!  Nothing compares to Tropicana.

The new look of Tropicana Orange Juice

I also remember traveling outside the United States to Ireland and England as a kid and not having my Tropicana.  I drank whatever I was given, but heck, it was never as good as Tropicana.  And then I spent a semester in the beautiful country of Australia, and they didn't have Tropicana either.   Yes, I pulled through it somehow, but those were some rough mornings.  Tropicana was one of the things I missed most while studying abroad, and upon re-entry, I savored our mornings together.  Bad orange juice sucks.  You know, like the kind you get on an airplane in the clear plastic cup with the pull back foil lid.  Not good, right?  Not good at all.  

So, I was at Stop & Shop yesterday, looking to pick up my Tropicana Pure Premium, No Pulp with Vitamin D Added (that's how I like it.)  But I couldn't find ANY!  "Were they on an end cap, are they sold out?"  And then... I found them in their beautiful new clear bottles!!  Phew!  I think my juice looks so fresh and pretty with its new look!  I hope I look that good on Sunday after my first 5K.  Lord knows, I'll be needing my Tropicana Sunday morning.  Isn't it pretty?

So what's your favorite orange juice?  Or are you like me ~ absolutely hooked on Tropicana, and Tropicana only?  It's a Connelley/Stow staple. Don't mess with our orange juice.  Thanks mom, for buying the right kind all these years.
