I’m more inclined to agree with The Runt in questioning the value of the survey and the abilities of the surveyor. The fact that he appears on COTY Ray D’Arcy’s show and seems cut from a similiar cloth leads me to having doubts about him.

Drinking coffee is bad enough but subject ones liver and kidneys to the filth that is instant coffee is just criminal.
Buy a percolator FFS.

That roaster doesn’t even have a percolation system for his effluence, how could you expect him to have one for his coffee

Surely he should be comparing things that are similar not things that are completely different. This thread and Conor Pope are a shambles

Is the decision based purely on taste or are other factors like nutritional value, sugar levels etc also taken into account?
Taste and price seem to be the factors Runt
Any assessment of apple juice that fails to consider Copella or Walshe’s is a failed assessment in my book. Each week I take issue with his sample selection, but this week that issue has become umbrage.
Hardly fair to compare juice made from concentrate with pressed apple juice. That seems shabby.
Strong words

Fagan I’m sorry now but you are making a complete balls of this thread. The lack of detail on every review of Mr Pope is appalling. Please sort your shit out and give this thread the attention it deserves.
All this thread proves is that Pope is a spoofer
He’s fucking useless. If he reviewed every widely available brand, fair enough, but taking 5 when there’s much more on the market is a waste of everyone’s time. Lidl do a lovely cloudy apple juice for €1. It’s omission renders this survey redundant.
Thraw in for his weekly dig at Ireland’s foremost consumer advocate.
He’s sniping from the sidelines like a self-serving prick. I’m at the coalface, mate.
An opportune time to educate the forum that there is a difference between “Not From Concentrate” and “Freshly Pressed” or “Freshly Squeezed.”
Juices that are freshly pressed or squeezed are less than two weeks old and are proper fresh orange juice. Juices that are “not from concentrate”, presumably including Innocent’s boast that they are never ever from concentrate, can be anything up to 12 months old thanks to sterile packaging. Concentrate is of course shite.

Really - there should be a very informative icon for posts of this calibre.
Please take note Conor Pope & Fagan.
The devil is in the detail.
