Unfiltered apple juice - why is it so uncommon?

It tastes to incredible, but it's so freakin' hard to find. Why?

B/c people don't like to see cloudy "gunk" in their drinks, they think that it makes it unsafe and dirty to drink, so they'll go for the flavorless, yet clear, filtered variety every day.

I love it. The problem is that it is quite acidic and can be bad if you drink too much. When I find really amazing apple juice at whole foods I tend to drink the whole thing in like an hour.

An then an hour later SField is doubled over on the john with hot apple cider streaming out of his colon.

I think a lot of companies stopped doing unfiltered/unpasteurized juice after a batch or two was found with e. coli a few years ago.

+1

Like olive oil, beer, honey and even wine-it's not as easy to market when people are used to expecting things to be of a certain color or clarity. That's one of the reasons that all sorts of consumer liquids come in tinted bottles.

Huh? What does too much of it do to you? I already drank a liter today and now this thread is making my stomach nervous...

Trader Joe's carries a good unfiltered apple juice that is quite cheap.

I don't think their normal apple does. IIRC they have an unfiltered offering as well. It's been a while since I bought apple juice though.

This thread has me wanting to stop at WF or TJ to get some though...
