Answer 1

The juice is made from the fruits that didn’t have to be distributed all the way to the store and then marked up by the grocer. Plus second-rate fruit was used to make the juice.

Put more simply, the fruits used to make the juice were **much less expensive** than the fruits you find for sale at the grocery.
