Almost all "from concentrate" contains a significant amount of juice imported from oranges grown in Mexico and Brazil. In the 2007-2008 season the U.S. imported 405,500,000 gallons of orange juice, while the total volume of retail sales was 623,200,000 gallons. Hence the difficulty of finding the "100% Florida orange juice" seal on the cartons of orange juice sold in American stores. This is not a good saturation for the Florida Citrus Industry, and the import/domestic imbalance is getting worse. - Millet (724-)
