And to think, only a year removed from this:

Orange-juice futures tumbled the most in two months on signs that citrus groves in Florida, the world’s second-biggest grower, probably avoided damage from cold weather.

Most of the orange belt escaped the frost last night, said Kyle Tapley, a meteorologist at MDA Information Systems Inc. in Rockville, Maryland. Florida Governor Charles Crist said last week “extreme temperatures” threatened the state with a “major disaster.” Yesterday, futures jumped to the highest since in more than three years.

Overnight was “not nearly as cold as the weather service was calling for,” said Jason Nicholls, a senior meteorologist at AccuWeather Inc. in State College, Pennsylvania. “If there was any effect on the citrus crop, it was very small.”

Orange juice for January delivery fell 6.9 cents, or 4.1 percent, to settle at $1.6005 a pound at 2 p.m. on ICE Futures U.S. in New York, the biggest drop since Oct. 14.

Now look at what Orange is doing!

Oct. 21 (Bloomberg) -- Sugar prices fell for the third straight day on prospects for higher output in Brazil, the world’s biggest exporter. Orange-juice futures rose.

Brazil’s Center South, the main growing region, may produce 135.5 kilograms of sugar per metric ton of cane, up from a forecast of 134.5 kilograms, Caio Carvalho, a director at Canaplan, a consulting company, said today in the city of Guaruja. Earlier, futures rose as much as 2.1 percent on speculation that European policy makers are moving closer to resolving debt woes.

“Seeing higher yields and larger supply will quell buying interest,” Sterling Smith, an analyst at Country Hedging in St. Paul, Minnesota, said in a telephone interview. “That’s pushing buyers to the sidelines.”

Raw sugar for March delivery fell 1.2 percent to 26.48 cents a pound at 2 p.m. on ICE Futures U.S. in New York. This week, the price dropped 5.2 percent. The commodity has dropped 27 percent from a 30-year high of 36.08 on Feb. 2.

Traders and analysts are the most bearish in almost three months on mounting speculation that supplies will outpace demand for the first time in four years, a Bloomberg survey showed.

Thailand, the second-largest exporter, expects a second straight year of record production with cane output reaching 100 million metric tons, Piromsak Sasunee, the chief executive officer of Thai Sugar Trading Corp., the nation’s biggest shipper, said yesterday.

Refined-sugar futures rose on NYSE Liffe in London.

Orange-juice futures for January delivery gained 0.5 percent to $1.702 a pound in New York. This week, the price climbed 1.6 percent, the third straight gain.

I think this is very important. A third straight gain demonstrates not only an increase in demand, but also a solid foothold for recovery from last years troubles.

Mango and Peach

These fruits are high in nutrients and can help give you the energy for sex. The textures and taste of mangoes and peaches are also erotic and can enhance a man's libido. Other fruits you can consume include strawberries, oranges and cherries.

whatever bro, you just don't want to have an honest discussion about how much better oranges are than anything else on the market. Apples, grapes, cherries, whatever. All the same. There is no second place in citrus capitalism.

Did someone say orange?

With apologies
In Sparkill buried lies that man of mark
Who brought the Obelisk to Central Park,
Redoubtable Commander H.H. Gorringe,
Whose name supplies the long-sought rhyme for "orange."

Skin's gone fruity.

I want a thread about pork bellies.

Who the hell buys frozen concentrated orange juice anyway?

[retailguy]

did you know that orange juice drinkers make more money than non-orange juice drinkers? Some of them are even willing to buy their own and bring it to work when their employers refuse to buy it for them. Rumor says that drinking the provided cheaper apple juice is slowing them down and preventing them from performing at their peak levels. Some companies are even worried about being left behind if they don't conform to the demands of their highest paid and most productive workers!

It is getting damn scary out there. Be careful.

WTF over? A thread about the frozen orange juice market and it doesn't have a shot of Jamie Lee Curtis's tits? My god they were a sight to behold back in the day.

[MJZiggy]

Dunno, guys. The supply guy at work just brought in hot apple cider for the Keurig machine. There's competition in the market. I'll try it in the morning and let you know how it is.
