My reasoning is it should be more costly as they are doing extra work juicing it
It’s not scale Walmart can but fruit at scale and sell cheap

The fruit you are buying in a supermarket is only a part of all the fruit that comes from the orchard.

Basically, you get the fruit that looks good, isn’t bruised, generally has minimal defects.

There is tons of fruit that comes from the orchards that doesn’t fit that. It’s got various defects that make it not ideal for sale. It’s still edible, but it’s not going to get picked up at a supermarket. People don’t buy off-color, deformed, or bruised fruit when any other fruit is present.

So what happens to that fruit? It becomes juice.
