Well that's one job of a writer, turn something boring into an article. He's probably a fairly decent writer, but I wouldn't care for his material or leftist views. A waste actually, cause his style seems to flow and is easy to follow (so many writers today suck). I don't know how he would ever pick craft beer btw.
Oh good call. I like beer and sometimes even I'm "overwhelmed" but I still pick one (or two).
It's the over the top dramatics that gets annoying. The mere fact that he lumped "Sunny D" in with orange juice is where I would have stopped reading. I had to pick up OJ 2 weeks ago and it is overwhelming to the extent that there are so many choices. But, like any choice in life it's process of elimination.
I don't like pulp. Boom, we eliminated half of the choices.
I don't like added calcium (affects the flavor), just knocked another two out of contention.
I don't like my OJ from concentrate. Great we're now down to about 3 choices.
Tropicana, Florida's Natural, and Simply Orange.
Next step, and this is crucial, look at the price tag, pick the one with the smallest number.
He most likely grew up demanding Play Dough Therapy, had an emotional support pet, went to his safe space/crying room to let his feelings out, and was pampered by parents and teachers, and got some trophies for just showing up.

This entire process lasts 15 seconds...tops!
For me the choice is simple. I only want the pulp ones with no added sugar or preservatives. Done. Most times I walk out empty handed. The stuff is hard to find and in short supply. It's the only one that makes a decent Lindauer mix ..... But it is whole peeled oranges pulped. Great stuff! But scarce
No, not the Bee, not The Onion. This pusscake is not only real but some woman thought he was marriage material.
Cringe alert!
"On a recent afternoon, while running errands before I had to pick up my kids from school, I froze in the orange-juice aisle of a big-box store. So many different brands lay before me: Minute Maid, Simply, Tropicana, Dole, Florida’s Natural, Sunny D—not to mention the niche organic labels. And each brand offered juices with various configurations of pulp, vitamins, and concentrate. The sheer plenitude induced a kind of paralysis: Overwhelmed by the choices on offer, I simply could not make one. I left the store without any orange juice....."
He's quite the provider
Could you imagine this guy providing for a family in the western territories, 19th century, LOL.
Please tell us you don’t read the leftist Atlantic. That magazine is well known as a threat to democracy.
Nope. Just stumbled across the story and chose to share.
