Decreasing someones consumption will likely decrease their quality of life.

Riiight... because the sugary sewage water sold by Coke and Pepsi is so vital for life, eh?

So you're going to ban products that you personally don't like? Or anything that isn't strictly utilitarian? No flavour in our drinks, no snacks, no smoking, no anything else...

No flavour in our drinks

You barely have any flavor in your drinks right now. Do you even know what real orange juice tastes like?

Tell you what... after we get rid of all the class-enemies and collectivised everyone's toothbrushes we'll decriminalize cocaine, okay?

It won't be communism... but everyone will be too high to care - which is close enough.

Are you suggesting I've never had oranges squeezed then drunk the juice? What an absolutely bizarre assumption.

I'm fascinated to be honest, like at some point you've had fresh orange juice and it was such a magical experience you can't imagine anyone else living through it? Or you found a dusty shack in the woods where a wizened old man let you use the juicer hes been hiding ever since whatever dystopian hell you're from banned them.

Fresh orange is pretty good, I very much recommend spending a day in a spanish orange grove, smoking weed, listening to miles Davis and drinking fresh orange over ice. The stuff in bottles is pretty much as good, in the US they do frozen concentrate which is really good because it's frozen when fresh so you still get all the nutrition and taste plus it takes up less volume so easier to transport and better for the environment.

By almost as good I mean like good stuff is a tier, fresh off the tree on a sunny day is a tier

Not really - but it's merely one example of many.

plus it takes up less volume so easier to transport and better ~~for the environment.~~ for corporate profits.

FTFY.

it’s frozen when fresh so you still get all the nutrition and taste

That's not how that works, btw.
