i don't understand what the diference is between eating an orange and drinking a glass of orange juice..everyone's always like, orange juice always has so much more sugar, but when i check the ingredients of Tropicana orange juice, its just oranges and ascorbic acid.
so whats the difference?

the same with apples and apple sauce/juice?!

i guess my main question is...is there a difference if the ingredients are just the fruit and some added vitamin?

I found this article on the benefits of eating an orange versus drinking orange juice.

Basically, an orange has fewer calories because nothing has been added to it. It's completely natural. With orange juice, even though it has a lot of vitamin C, it has significantly more calories since things are added to the drink form.
