From Quiz Start Your Day Off Right!

Answer: orange

Sometimes my parents will squeeze juice fresh from the oranges, and sometimes they will buy it from the store in a carton. I like it either way. Orange juice became really popular in the USA after the University of Florida developed frozen concentrated orange juice in the 1940s, and it was no longer necessary to buy fresh oranges every day. It is a good source of Vitamin C. Sometimes, however, we eat a fresh orange rather than drink juice because the fruit provides fiber.
