Some of the notices on food have surprised us since we got here - for instance it is possible to buy a product that bears a passable similarity to Baked Beans - but you have to look for 'vegetarian beans' to avoid the presence of chunks of meat with the beans. Similarly, to buy a sandwich without cheese in it, it is far from enough to buy a 'ham sandwich' - rather a special order to get a 'ham sandwich with no cheese' is usually required.This apple juice is really made from just apples though and is meat-product free I think - whatever it may say on the bottle.
you may not need this to be pointed out, but my guess would be that, the concentrate is made from apple juice, but imported from the country of turkey, hence the "concentrate from turkey" label.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad to discover that at least one US Citizen knows there's a world out there :-) On a more serious note - they grow apples in Turkey - who knew? and how does the transportation of apple juice concentrate from eastern Europe stack up with our attempts to limit our food-miles? At least we can reasonably hope that it didn't have to fly here I suppose.
