I get that it says “flavored juice drink” now, but I was tired and the text is pretty small.
“Fruit snacks” are so much worse. It’s just candy, and inferior in taste and texture to anything made with actual fruit.

They just have the things people buy. Sugar water seems to be what people prefer over real juice, so that’s what they make and sell in higher quantities.
Education is probably the answer here, because people assume it’s healthy. We’d definitely need better regulation on package labeling too.
They stock things they make more profit on. If the margins on sugar water are much higher, then they don’t need to sell as much to make it worth stocking it instead of juice. If the margins are higher because consumers are unaware they’re being sold a cheaper-to-manufacture product for the same price because the packaging is deceptive to anyone who hasn’t been told they have to look or is in too much of a rush to have time to look, then shops end up full of sugar water that few consumers actually want.
