How do them make fruit juice, Momma?

Despite my uneven vigilance against all things commercial, the last time we were at Costco, I was lobbied to buy the Sesame Street juice boxes.

Were they organic? Check.

Were they small in size to limit over-juice consumption? Check.

Were they cost-effective? Kinda check.

So we are in the midst of drinking juice during snack this afternoon and Juliette asks the aformentioned question.

I had to resist every urge in my brain to reply "They put Elmo on the rack, stretch him out some, and squeeze him until all the juice runs out."
