I am not sure if the consumers really like and demand no pulp OJ or if it's one of those fads that are being pushed onto the consumers by the big brands. I for one prefer high pulp OJ any day, not for the fiber, but because it makes the juice taste so much better and fruitier. Without the pulp, the juice might as well be made from artificial flavors.

It's extra work but I just eat oranges or juice them (manually, screw cleaning out a big juicer).

I'll also add that if you drink juice, you can consume a lot more sugar than if you ate the fruit - eating the "whole" fruit you'll feel full quicker.

sure but my use case is to make my throat feel better so the fruit isn't as good.

I'd recommend just eating some C vitamin pills instead. At least eat oranges directly instead of drinking juice.
