Good that you brought that up as I have been reading
labels for so long that somehow I overlooked juice as
something that most people would buy without looking at
the label ; whereas with bread I realize that few read the
label.

My conclusion also; please how do I get to Seely's data.

I disagree here. I have eaten several different varieties
of wild berries in Oregon. They can be superbly sweet.
However the wild apples I found in Oregon were small and
tart.
