Surprise Result
Of Oranges Test
Refreshing, delicious, and popu
lar for the hasty breakfaster as
orange juice is, there is one count
against the practice of squeezing
oranges worth the consideration of
the housewife —it is wasteful of
vitamin C. the most important nu
tritive offering of this fruit. This is
the conclusion of the Arizona Ex
periment Station as a result of
tests of navels, sweet seedlings and
Valencias prepared for serving in
different ways. Oranges in seg
ments offer more vitamin C than
those prepared in any other way.
the Station reports. Sliced oranges
give more C than juice, and un
strained juice more than strained
juice. Strained juice contains only
from a half to three-fourths the
amount of vitamin C contained in
the segments, so is the most ex
travagant way to use oranges.
• e *
THE ARIZONA tests also showed
that orange juice can stand over
night or a day in the refrigerator
without much loss of C. Orange
juice held in the refrigerator 21
hours after squeezing retained
most of its C. On an average not
more than 5 per cent was lost.
