Whoever thought of adding calcium to OJ was a marketing genius

Since i saw that calcium added to orange juice many years ago, I now buy alot more OJ than milk. Heck, i dont think i've bought any milk this year.

Whatever the reason calcium was added to OJ, it got me to pick OJ over milk.

OJ industry +1, Milk 0

Milk is a lot better for you than OJ overall. Fat free milk that is. 1% or 2% Milk will give you a heart-attack.

The only reason I buy milk is to cook with it or for treats like milk/cookies with my young nephew.

OJ = WIN

If you are a guy to much calcium is not good for your. Increases your chance of prostate cancer.

Now Vit.-D is something most don;t get enough of.

I don't buy either one all that often. Neither is a great source of calcium. If you want calcium, eat meat.

I only have milk on cereal and I never have OJ, I'd rather just have an actual orange.

So now you are getting prostate cancer, based on Marlin's post? Probably. All these additives in foods are epic sh*t fvcking scam.

I much prefer Grapefruit Juice to OJ.

In fact, I don't like OJ at all unless it's free... lots of things are OK when they're free.

I drink whole milk, probably a gallon a week.

I also drink probably a gallon of full pulp orange juice a week.

Good stuff!

OJ is like soda with a little vitamin C (and I guess sometimes calcium). Calcium added or not, Milk is way better for you than OJ. Oh, I prefer its taste, too. And its more useful in cooking.
