I’ll tell you what book I think should win: Soft Drink & Fruit Juice Problems Solved is a brilliant name for a book. In fact, based on that name, I’ve left a review for it at Amazon (and below), and I encourage you to do the same! Working together, we can bring soft drink and fruit juice problems to the world’s attention…where they belong.
In my opinion, this modest volume will come to be an invaluable resource for those encountering juice and soft drink difficulties both at home and in the workplace. Speaking for myself, I typically encounter hardships with my juice while walking to the monorail. Yes, sippy cups were helpful, but it wasn't until I cogitated on this fine volume's contents that I was able to make it to my cubicle without blueberry stains on my cravat. So bravo to authors Ashurst and Hargitt!
