This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

That depends. How many gallons would you say you drink a day?

I don't know about gallons but 1.5 liters

That's about 87 grams of sugar, which is about 3 times the recommended sugar daily intake for an adult male. Which roughly translates to, as bollybing put it, a beetus.

The packaging writes 0g per 250ml, they use artificial sweeteners in Turkey

Somehow, that also feels incorrect. There’s gotta be natural sugars still left in it, otherwise it’d just be “artificial” lemonade, right?

Or do they mean/say “0g of sugar added”? Why specify per 250ml then?

You've never seen all of those "zero" sodas and the likes? The ice tea will likely just have peach aroma and an onslaught of artificial sweeteners.

Sodas, sure. This was about juice specifically.

That’s not juice. Iced tea, sure I’ve seen that. But since this whole thing was about juice originally I was super confused, lol.
