Talk:Sugarcane juice

Article makes unsubstantiated health claims
The page says Evaporated Cane Juice is a healthy alternative to cane sugar. No substantiation is offered, nor references. If, indeed, Evaporated Cane Juice is the same as Garapa, there are health risks identified in the Garapa article that seam to contradict the claims on this page. jsandoe, 10 August 2009 —Preceding undated comment added 19:14, 10 August 2009 (UTC).
 * The health claims seem to be based on the concept that processing food, regardless of what that might involve, makes it less healthy. The actual nutritional difference is negligible.  The article now uses enough distancing words in that sentence, and enough evidence to the contrary immediately afterwards, that I don't really think it's a problem, but still: May I point out another food that is quite heavily processed: Drinking water.  Would these people have us believe it's a better idea to drink unprocessed water from streams and lakes instead of taps?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.196.176.188 (talk) 17:52, 4 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Where is the source for the health claims? You're conflating "logical" with "supported by evidence". No evidence = doesn't belong here. 75.169.254.154 (talk) 03:19, 13 August 2017 (UTC)

Cancer prevention, other health claims are 100% nonsense. 75.169.254.154 (talk) 03:19, 13 August 2017 (UTC) The description of policosanol is inaccurate, reflects a very poor understanding of that class of molecules. 75.169.254.154 (talk) 08:12, 13 August 2017 (UTC)

evaporated cane juice?
Can this articale also be linked to "evaporated cane juice"? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 162.115.236.120 (talk) 15:43, 28 March 2008 (UTC)

Evaporated cane juice = refined white sugar?
The intro paragraph claims that evaporated cane juice is just a euphemism for refined white sugar. Is this true? Based on the name, it seems like an unrefined mix of white sugar, brown sugar and molasses; basically sugar cane juice without the refining. Anyone know for sure? --Karuna8 (talk) 01:37, 26 June 2008 (UTC)


 * I don't believe it's accurate, and I don't even know what that's doing there, because evaporated cane juice is a dry, granulated product. I would recommend removing the sentence entirely. Badagnani (talk) 01:39, 26 June 2008 (UTC)

Merger proposal
I propose the merger of the garapa article into sugarcane juice. Garapa is the portuguese term of sugarcane juice, and it's not distinct for the rest of the drinks in other countries besides Brazil. --Itzcuauhtli (talk) 15:37, 30 August 2012 (UTC)


 * I strongly agree to this - we should definitely merge both together. Mmkaram (talk) 07:36, 25 April 2013 (UTC)


 * Yes, indeed. Candleabracadabra (talk) 02:02, 12 July 2013 (UTC)
 * It has more than one meaning though. Maybe just link it? Khaophaestus (talk) 12:26, 12 September 2021 (UTC)
