>Grape juice is absolutely not normally grape juice plus possibly sugar.

How sure are we on that? It has been a while, but I recall something like Welch's tasting like grape juice.

Seems like theirs actually is. But that’s also likely why it costs more.


Apparently even walmart's great value grape juice that's half the price is apparently 100% grape juice. Given how much Welsch's seems to be pushing the grown in America angle while a location isn't mentioned at all for great value, I think it's a fair bet that they've found some source of super cheap grapes somewhere to let them get that 100% grape claim


Welch's purple grape juice is concord grapes: "In the United States, 417,800 tons were produced in 2011.[3] The major growing areas are the Finger Lakes District of New York, Lake Erie, Lake Ontario, Southwestern Michigan, and the Yakima Valley in Washington.[4]"

You can use it to make wine just fine, if you're in to that sort of thing.

If i had to guess the white grape juice is whatever the green seedless variety in california was for decades from the late 70s on.
