I have noticed a lot lately that organic foods that I pick up have fruit juice in them to sweeten- cereal, snack bars, etc.
If all other ingredients are safe, should the juice be safe too?

They should be safe unless you have a sensitivity to fructose. In that case the high fructose contents of things like apples and pear juice could be a problem.

Can you explain why they are okay in these types of ingredients, but not okay to drink? Is it the quantity that's the problem?
