> It wasn’t orange juice at all, or any type of fruit juice. It was green juice.

This is a distinction without a difference. It doesn't matter what the juice is called. It doesn't change the fact that it's idiotic to pay hundreds of dollars for a machine that just squeezes bags of fruits and vegetables, and needs an Internet connection to ensure you're locked in to only squeezing the company's pricy bags.

What it shows is people who criticize the company don’t actually know anything about it. If you’re going to criticize actually take the time to understand instead of throwing rocks thinking you’re so smart because you read a headline.
Those criticisms are all valid. The "juice is sugary and terrible for you" criticism is much less valid, since the premise was to juice vegetables.
"Green juice" is fruits and vegetables, FYI. Look at their marketing material. The bags listed the ingredients on the front and they included things like apple and pineapple.
