Why orange juice is always served in a small glass....
It took years, but I figured out why.

OJ is served in a small glass because it doesn't go with anything.

Well that's not entirely true. I found OJ to go real well with cranberry muffins, for some reason. But that's just me.

blahblah just blabbing away...

You think that this is the reason that restaurants serve it in small glasses? Because they are caring for your health??

That's an interesting take.

I agree, it does go well with vodka. Too well, in fact. Well enough to knock me on my a_s.

ORIGINALLY, THE SMALL GLASS WAS BECAUSE IT WAS FRESH SQUEEZED BY HAND . . . THE TRADITION CONTINUES DUE TO PROFITS.

This is what I learned in a nutrition class when I was pregnant, you should have a little oj or other citrus juice with your meal because you need the vitamin C to help your body absorb the iron in your food-but it only takes about 2 oz with a meal. I could be wrong on the motive, but the nutritional aspect is correct. Hence maybe the small portion.

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 15000302


This is the best answer. Juices in large quantities made you fat, and the sugars tax the whole body.

Actually, OJ is often served in big glasses in the USA these days because Americans generally have no idea why they shouldn't just keep getting fatter and more diabetic.

Education is a good thing.

The only orange juice worth drinking is freshly squeezed.
In the morning as it goes best with breakfast foods.
Sometimes I will mix it with buttermilk) tasty.

of course it does. the sugar in an orange is about half sucrose, one quarter glucose, and one quarter fructose. squeezing the juice out won't change the basic sugar composition.

Re: Why orange juice is always served in a small glass....
maybe, in old days when they fresh squeezed oranges on one of of those old manual orange squeezer things, that "one" orange was one glass and that is prolly not a lot? - so orange juice glass size was based on about how much juice one orange can offer?

I like it with scrambled eggs, the vitamin c helps the iron absorb.
When you find a piece of shit along side the road and you poke it with a stick, what do you expect to find inside of it, gold?
No, it's just going to stink more.
