      Thank you clarify the name of the juice to the audiences. That's I provide you this recipient. the best vitamin beverage juice for you and your children is home made juice. Buy fresh fruits from the grocery store and make juice in your own rather than manufacturing processing juices. If you are living in USA. Nurse.

    I'm 71, and just started pressure cooking in an Instant Pot. What a difference in my diet. Have finally turned the corner to eat whole foods, plant-based. My initial thought....what a great tool for every family.....quick, nutritious meals with lots of beans, onions, veggies of all kinds.(maybe a smattering of meat). How about a community kitchen with several Pots cooking the neighborhood dinners? Always plenty of leftovers for next day! Unfortunately, the Pots are made in China. Wish I could have bought American. Mrs. Obama.....so glad for Plezi, and what's to come!

    This is great. Food matters. I really believe in the cafeteria experience, believe that there's a lot of room for capitalism to innovate into a culture and infrastructure for healthy+social meals. Everybody can have food. Robots can help. EVERYBODY can have good food, and not even have to decide from day to day what to buy or what to cook, unless they want to. Very cafeteria.

    Will it be affordable for low income families or is it for the WholePaycheck crowd?

      Just avoid all forms of sugar and also all packaged foods, eat any thing freshly cooked, walk for one hour daily. You will have good health all through your life. Best wishes

      It’s at Target. The price may differ by area but in my area it’s $5.99 for a 4 pack.
