Advertising icon is implicitly happy with having her head sliced open and its juice extracted.



Were Western Union workers really given OJ breaks?

I remember the orange groves in the 50´s but it wasn´t Florida.

F.U.D., I'm guessing you're referring to California oranges. When the ad touts the fact that Florida oranges are thin-skinned and therefore give you more juice for your money, I think they're referring to juice varieties like Valencia. Where I live, navel oranges are usually from California and Valencia oranges are from Florida.
