BP school (that didn't send for 2 years - they only arranged boxes during May and June 2020) just sent out a message that they're having summer boxes.

Prices for everything are just through the roof right now I’m just annoyed that taxes are still going to this.

Totally understand you. It's such a basic staple for all of us.

The issue is that grape juice and apple juice are essentially devoid of any nutritional value - you might as well just drink soda or Koolaid.
The poster was complaining because they are providing these junk liquids in lieu of providing fruits and vegetables with actual nutritional value.
And grape juice is NOT considered to be a standard drink for kids in any homes that care about what their kids eat or drink. It is considered to be the same as soda.
Orange Juice is slightly different because it does have a lot of Vitamin C and is an easy way to get kids to get it but still not particularly healthy as eating an orange or grapefruit is much healthier.

Acesulfame potassium is a fake sugar. | Wow. We’re super health conscious here and I had no idea about that in light grape juice. That’s it’s an artificial sweetener and a carcinogen. We’ve been using it for years. I wonder if we should switch back to regular. The kids mix it with seltzer anyways. Very disappointing.

Do you mean light as the golden color or dark that's low carb?

The regular blush grape juice (not light) is lower in calories than the regular concord. And white has even less than the blush. All regular, not light.

Acesulfame potassium is a fake sugar. |
This is why my Rav holds that we can't use Light Grape Juice for the 4 cups on Pesach, unless someone is diabetic or has a health issue that would prohibit them from drinking regular grape juice.
