Let me just say I was pleasantly surprised by what I learned.
For starters, they do their best to keep things local. Out of every 10 oranges harvested, 9.5 come from Florida. The other half an orange comes from Brazil, which is a necessity in case Florida has a bad hurricane season or loses too many orange trees to frost. For example, in 2004, Florida was down 250 million trees after the hurricanes and a bout of citrus canker.
You know how your pleasure center totally lights up/explodes/jumps around when you dive into a bag of SunChips? Well, the sensation is about to get even more intense.
