Bony Orange Juice, Hold The Fur

It used to be easy to buy orange juice. But now you need a Ph.D just to approach the dairy case with any dignity. There are about 50 varieties — OJ with Calcium, with Zinc, with Pulp, without Pulp, with Vitamins C and E, blended with Ruby Red Grapefruit Juice, with Tangerine Juice. You name it.

We call Orange Juice with Calcium "Bony OJ" and refer to the pulp as "Fur". Don't recall how this got started in our house. But as usual, the marketers win. We've always got way too much OJ in the fridge and one family member busy boycotting the other family member's preferred combination. I'm a "bony orange juice, hold the fur" married to a "bony orange juice grapefruit combo, extra fur" with a son who'd rather drink water for breakfast.
