New and improved "fruit" juice

Been drinking Welch's Cranberry/Grape juice for a while, thinking the fruit juices would be healthy for me. So Tuesday Connie goes and stocks up some and when she gets home, she happens to glance at the label and things something has changed. Yeah, I'll say.

Here's the juice itself...

Here's the contents label for the older stuff I have been drinking:

And here's the newer stuff:

I guess I shouldn't be surprised at stuff like this. Now when you buy a bag of potato chips, you get half a bag of air. Kleenex tissues now have a rather wide air space at the top of the box whereas they used to be crammed to the top. Candy bars are smaller, portions are smaller, and as can be seen, nutrients are removed or greatly reduced. Yet the price remains the same or even higher.

No telling how many more items are being foisted on us like this without any fanfare. So not only is quality diminishing, so is quantity as well. That's if you can even believe what the labels are saying.
 
To find 100% cranberry you'll have to go a place like Whole Foods or such. Regular supermarkets do not carry it. Found out cause I went looking.
