BARTOW, Fla. \u2013 It should come as no surprise that America loves orange juice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Americans drink close to a billion gallons of orange juice every year and more people purchase orange juice than any other 100 percent fruit juice on the market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But do Americans know where their orange juice comes from?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Florida supplies more than half of the orange juice Americans drink each year. But not every carton of OJ has roots in U.S. soil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It\u2019s not always easy to decipher origin labels on food. To help distinguish between orange juice hailing from Floridaand the rest of the world, the Florida Department of Citrus launched a new program this fall to spotlight 100% Florida Orange Juice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
