We try not to buy junk food. We do at times (one must build up their junk food anti-bodies) but we do really try to limit it.
We're in a produce co-op* so sometimes the food in our fridge is not something we would buy normally. A few weeks ago we had pears, apples, oranges, and strawberries that were going to go bad in a day or so; they all got juiced.
This batch had a strong strawberry flavor and I was really happy with it because I couldn't taste the yucky apples or pears. I was drinking it and my kids were drinking it and then that one came over. My eldest offered the juice and I grudgingly shared it. My eldest asked if they liked it. The response? "I've had better." In the kids defense the parents only buy junk food and the palate is very uneducated.
This batch has all of the same but less strawberries and I threw in a tomato, just because. I've also decided that if that kid wants some I'll say nope, you've already told me that it won't meet your standards, so I won't waste it on you.
Food co-op: A group of people buy a large quantity of produce at a discounted price. Discounted because the grocer had an abundance of it.
