Simply Natural: Minute Maid Pulpy Blog Contest
I just drank a bottle of Minute Maid Pulpy. They say it’s got ‘no preservatives added’. Aw, c’mon…It’s bottled juice. Is that even possible? So I thought maybe... Minute Maid must have a secret, special, magical ingredient that makes it great-tasting, orangey and sweet...
Could it be some kind of magic ingredient from Hogwarts?
Nahhh! Minute Maid tastes great because it is simply NATURAL.
A - Artificial
T - Taste
U - ushering a
R - robust and
A - active
L - lifestyle!
Minute Maid is so natural it has real orange juice and real pulp bits squeezed inside a bottle. And since it's so good and natural, it's a great thirst-quencher that promotes a healthy and active lifestyle!
I didn’t believe it the first time I heard it’s got no preservatives added. So I read the ingredients (even the fine print) and everything checked out! It really has NO PRESERVATIVES ADDED! 
Yup! It's pulpy orange with no preservatives added.
So okay, it’s got no preservatives added. That’s really good, right? Not just because it doesn’t have those icky, harmful ingredients, but it also means... Minute Maid is filled with energy boosting vitamins and minerals that help sustain my active lifestyle. What's more, vitamin C in Minute Maid can help prevent cancer and boosts immunity from common diseases.
So far anyone who still has a hard time believing that Minute Maid has got no preservatives added - meaning it's THAT natural, it's almost like it's plucked straight from the tree, it's just as Mother Nature wanted your orange juice to be, it's got nothing but the good stuff yes, none of those potentially toxic stuff that can harm your brain, kidneys, heart; cause tumors aargh- the list of preservatives' bad effects just go on!!! Anyway, just to prove a point on just how good Minute Maid Pulpy is 'cause it's got NO PRESERVATIVES ADDED, I'm gonna share my Minute Maid so that everyone can enjoy this gift from Mother Nature packed in a bottle.

sharing my bottle of Minute Maid to the kids in Antipolo City. Full story from my previous blog about My Most Natural Running Experience.
My dad enjoying a bottle of Minute Maid after our jogging session...
I believe that with the thirst-quenching power of Minute Maid, I can achieve a whole lot more. I can be a person filled with more energy and more fun while enjoying a healthy drink with family and friends to the fullest! Feels good to know about the real pulpy deal, right? C’mon show me a smile on the comment box, and you might win yourself a Really Pulpy Deal! (That’s a chance to win a Minute Maid gift pack simply by commenting. Sweet! C'mon you just might be picked as the lucky 'commentor'!)
Love,
rdnofera
- the fun-loving, healthy-living and orange-drinking Contest Pirate!
This is my entry to the Minute Maid blog contest. To know more about this pulpy contest, just squeeze yourself over to the Minute Maid Philippines fan page on Facebook. Deadline for posting your blog entry for this contest is on January 10, 2011.
You can also win gift packs courtesy of Minute Maid simply by commenting on my blog post! Good luck and drink to good health everyone! :)
