What You Should Know

You'd spot this 12 fl oz Dragonfruit Veggie Blend in the chilled grab-and-go juice section or refrigerator case at Whole Foods — handy for a quick morning boost or to tuck into a work bag before leaving home. It reads health-forward and adventurous with tropical dragonfruit and greens, but the multiple juice concentrates, 'natural flavor' and added malic acid point to industrial reconstitution and flavor standardization, producing a smooth, uniform texture typical of ultra-processed beverages.
