“Did you have any orange juice today?”*…
… if so, it’s less and less likely that it was from Florida.
The canonical articles on the Florida orange juice industry are John McPhee’s two-parter from The New Yorker from the 1960s. But that was then.
Alex Sammon has picked up the baton, with an article on the brutal, unrelenting decline of that business…
Quiet fell over the room, which was neither full nor very loud to begin with, and the 2026 Florida Citrus Show began.
“It should be a great day,” began the event’s first speaker. “Rain should hold off today, even though we definitely need more rain.” No one laughed.
There was no need to say that things were bad. Everyone knew it. The mood wasn’t sour—citrus farmers could handle sour. It was something else. Postapocalyptic. Florida is in the midst of its worst drought in 25 years, but the dry spell actually ranked far down on the list of challenges these bedraggled growers were facing.
In 2003, the mighty Florida orange industry produced 242 million boxes of fruit, with 90 pounds of oranges per box, most of which went on to become orange juice. Now, not even 25 years later, the United States Department of Agriculture was forecasting a pitiful 12 million boxes of oranges, the least in more than 100 years, the worst year since last. A decline of more than 95 percent.
And everyone knew, more or less, that even that figure was not happening. “Twelve million? I would doubt it,” Matt Joyner, CEO of Florida Citrus Mutual, the state’s largest trade group, told me. There was chatter that even 11 million might be out of reach. Could the total end up being less than that, just seven figures? In Florida, the citrus capital of the world, you are today more likely to see the oranges printed on the state’s 18 million license plates than a box of actual fruit.
Rick Dantzler, chief operating officer of the Citrus Research and Development Foundation, took the podium. He was blunt. “It’s been a dumpster fire of a year,” he said.
On the list of immediate problems: the implementation of tariffs and retaliatory tariffs, then the government shutdown, then a stunning, historic freeze, days long, at the end of January and early February, that besieged the fragile orange trees.
And yet those, too, were just footnotes to the even larger problem. Already, Florida had lost about three-quarters of its citrus growers. The last of them, these spent survivors, these hangers-on, had trudged to the Citrus Show to talk about the real problem, which was the disease.
In 2005, Florida first got signs of a new affliction in its groves called citrus greening disease. It also has a Chinese name, Huanglongbing, or HLB, because it came from China, where oranges also came from in the first place.
Citrus greening disease is caused by a bacterial infection that is delivered by the gnawing of the Asian citrus psyllid. (It’s now believed the psyllid first turned up near the Port of Miami in 1998.) The flea-sized psyllid bites the leaves and transmits the disease, which slowly chokes out the tree’s vascular system from the inside, taking years to finally show itself. By the time a tree is displaying symptoms—three to five years, in most cases—it’s too late…
Read on for an explanation of how this catastrophe has materialized and for a consideration of what it means for Central Florida (and the other major supplier, Brazil, which is also suffering).

As we contemplate the consequences of climate change and contagion, we might consider an alternative to orange juice on this, National Raisin Day. But while raisins are richly nutricious, they are not so strong on Vitamin C, so we’ll have to keep looking…

My son gave me a container of booze soaked almonds and raisins as you can see in the picture.
What can I make with this? I thought fruitcake if I added some other things to it, but when would we eat it next Christmas? And I'm the only one that really likes it! -

Bob: Why? Don't you like raisins?
Alice: I like raisins, just not in my baked goods.
Bob: You're weird.

Bob: What? No!
Alice: Kumquats and raisins are fruit. Garlic bread and cinnamon buns are baked goods. Why am I weird and you aren't?

@BoudetteGirl Not much sun, no paper on the ground involved.
Extended low temp dehydrating done, 1lb 4 oz or 590 grams of not-so-golden raisins or sultanas.
They are more dry than needed but it's hard to judge when warm so I let them go overnight again. 5 hours short of 6 full days on 110 - 120F / 43C - 49C heat in the dehydrator.

I don’t understand why so many people hate raisins. They’re delicious. I put them in cookies, rice, and some meat dishes. I eat them by themselves. My chinchillas like them, too. What’s with all the raisin hate? #raisin #raisins #food #DriedFood

@evelynefoerster did it again. 🥰 Today, #Sunday, is #BakingContest. #PeanutButter #Muffins. A little dry, but still tasty, though I‘m not that a big fan of peanut butter. I‘d suggest adding #Raisins next time. 🥰🤣

CW: Spelt wholemeal bread (vegan)
So I wanted to make a very soft 100% spelt wholemeal sourdough bread. I achieved this by scalding 20% of the flour (which is quite a lot), and by also adding 20% (in baker's percentage) of spelt flakes. I also added some raisins, which made the bread a bit sweeter. The overall hydration of the bread was 82%, but the dough didn't feel that wet!
About 15% of the flour was in the sourdough (75% hydration) starter, which is quite a lot for long fermentation, but the dough developed nicely in the fridge. The bulk fermentation was from Monday noon until Monday night; then I shaped the dough and let it proof in the ceramic baking mould over night. Surprisingly, the bread had quite an oven spring; it even touched the lid of the baking mould.
I really loved the deep brown colour of the crust and the very soft, uniformly pored crumb with the spongy texture typical for high-hydration wholemeal bread. Much more than the raisins, however, I appreciated the added spelt flakes (which were of the kind Rotdinkel, I think, which has a distinctive nutty taste). Perhaps the bread would also have worked with olives or even with grated carrots.

#OTD Lorraine Collett, American #Model, is born.At 23, she was a #SunMaid #Raisin girl.
One morning, after her hair was set into eight long black #Curls, Lorraine swapped her blue bonnet for her mother’s red one. As she stood in her yard in #Fresno, Sun-Maid executives & their wives walked by & asked about the red bonnet.
Lorraine became the face of the company. Her image was on every box of #Raisins. Today the #Smithsonian has the #Red #Bonnet.

I think my grandparents used to keep a bottle of #Boerenjongens (literally: farm boys), which basically was #raisins in #brandywine. My favourite #DutchFood blog, #TheDutchTable, has a nice recipe for it, as well as #Boerenmeisjes (lit. 'farm girls'), which uses dried #apricots in #brandy instead: https://www.thedutchtable.com/2013/06/boerenjongens.html
Personally I'd say 'fuck the archaic genderisation' and mix them both and call 'em #FarmFolx ;)
