travails in crocin country

call me ismile [1]. i embarked on this journey 2 1/2 years ago. The last two years have been spent assiduously searching for that elusive great white-whale of lactose-free breakfasts: JUICE!

Unfortunately, everything in the us of a that has to with berries and cherries reminds me of "Crocin" [2] syrup from my sickly childhood days. That leaves very little choice -- I can either pick artificial, saccharine, mixed-fruit concoctions, or stick to and get sick of OJ and its numerous siblings/cousins.

And so, the quest continues....

[1] due apologies to herman melville
[2] for the uninitiated Crocin is Glaxo's brand of paracetamol
