We have grape juice and prune juice, right? One is from a "regular" fruit, and one is from a dried fruit of a different variety. My question is... where are the other juices?! I want to know why we have grape juice and prune juice, but we don't have plum juice and raisin juice. For all I know, maybe we do have those juices, but they're certainly not mainstream. What's up with that?
Another thing... as far as prune juice goes... so many people think prune juice seems so nasty, but I've never actually tried it. I'm sure it's really good for you, though. But there's just one thing... it seems like it's only old people who drink it. So another question comes to mind. How old do you have to be in order to drink prune juice and not be considered weird for drinking it? If a 25-year-old was to drink prune juice every morning with his 4:30 a.m. breakfast, that would just be weird, but if an 80-year-old was to do the same, that would be expected. At what point was the line crossed?

raisins dont have juice.
but why do we have prune juice then
so i dont know
Yeah, it's so confusing... how do we make juice out of something like a prune, which is dried? I can't handle this! :(
I think a better question is..... Why would a 25 year old wake up at 4:30? Why would anyone wake up at that time? I can understand 5:30 and what not, but 4:30 seems like such an inconvenient time to be waking up.
Old people stereotypically get up really really early. You're right; a 25-year-old generally wouldn't get up that early, but an 80-year-old just might.
there is a 4.40 in the morning
Sometimes I get up at 4:00 a.m. or 4:30 a.m. My almost-80-year-old mother likes to get up at 11:00 a.m. I have never tried prune juice but prunes are good. Grandma likes prunes, too, but I'm not sure about the juice. So, am I old? Is Grandma old??? Based on your criteria, this is a difficult question to answer, Mr. Paul. Definitely worth pondering.
Well you can make juice from anything with a good blender and maybe some liquid to help it...I'm sure it's been tried and hasn't caught on, like you said.
Oh, and I think that "line" is somewhere around when drinking a laxative has a positive effect on you...
