Question

What does the term "from concentrate" mean? What is concentrate? Why is most juice made from this?

Answer 1

it means the natural water has been eliminated. therefore you have to reconstitute it with water. It increases the shelf life of the product and cuts on shipping costs as its volume has been decreased.

Answer 2

the fruit juice was concentrated, or had the extra water taken out, usually for shipping. then, when it was bottled (and possibly sugared), it had the water that was taken out put back in. juice will say from concentrate if it is. not all juice is this way.

Answer 3

Its very pure, doesn't have much water. Its either made from all natural juice or its made of all natural juice and very little water.

Answer 4

like frozen concentrate is that most of the water is removed and it's just the pure juice...it has a stronger flavor..

Answer 5

Concentrated juice is juice with a lower water content. With less water, it's easier and cheaper to transport. Later, the water is added back again.

Answer 6

Concentrate is how much u can feel the juice taste. The higher concentrate that it has, the more great would it taste.

Answer 7

it means thats they take the concentrated juice, and add water to it, to basically make more; so that they can make more, and get more money
