Guest guest Posted August 4, 2007 Report Share Posted August 4, 2007 I previously posted the below question but never received any comments and thought I would try again. We are giving the below product to our son and hope we are starting off on the wrong foot. Clarification/help please. Thank you. I realize apple juice is illegal and apple cider is legal but I'm confused. I purchased some Whole Foods organic apple " juice " , but it is from fresh pressed apples, not from concentrate, it is pasteurized and it has the sediment in it...all the qualifications of the legal apple cider. So, isn't this legal even though it's called juice? Ingredients: pasteurized unfiltered juice from select organic apples. Thank you!!

Guest guest Posted August 4, 2007 Report Share Posted August 4, 2007 We understand this to be legal and our daughter has used it for 8 months. I believe I wrote them at the beginning, but I have forgotten at this point. Trader Joe’s also has a similar product and we use the Trader Joes now. If anyone finds out otherwise, let us know and I will too! But I think they are legal.
