Can I bring a manual OJ machine

[Magicat]

Are not the oranges they use to make the juice actually juice oranges which are different than the oranges that you eat?  Not an orange expert by any means but this is what I believed.

May just take a couple Vitamin C’s and you won’t have to bring:

 

Juicer

Cutting Board

Knife

Glassware

Dawn Dishwashing soap (or portable dishwasher)

Dish rack to dry everything.

 

Very true, but you could also just sit in front of your T.V. and watch you tube videos of life in cabin XXX on XXXX of the Seas and others on cruising on XXXX of the Seas and others on the virtual port tours and you could also use the kid's sand box as a beach. That would certainly save yourself the cost and hassle of actually lugging those Vitamin C pills around with you and on to the ship. But where's the adventure in that? Life's an adventure - juice it! 😉

The "fresh" OJ onboard especially in MDR or CK has always been a mistery to me. The product they serve is either diluted with water or they add sugar or it's some concentrate. Getting simple freshly squeezed juice seems to be a big issue at RCL and X.

[shipgeeks]

There is the OJ from the dispensers (free) and there is fresh-squeezed which costs (or in my case, one of my D+ vouchers).  A world of difference!

I used to gr theirs until last sept. It was the sourest ever. They used oranges that were rancid. It tasted like acid. Burned my throat. Stupid to use oranges they had to have known by the feel were bad. 

I had spent the money for fresh squeezed orange juice last month on HOTS - I won't make that mistake again.  The orange juice from concentrate had a better flavor than their fresh squeezed.

What I had was rancid. Burned like acid. Havent ordered it since and I get 5 vouchers a day and dont use them up so it's free.

Yes. You can take a manual juicer. I have done it. There are no blades. Mine is plastic.

Good luck and enjoy your cruise.

The things people want to bring on vacation.  We saw somebody last time who had their own collapsible cart for all their stuff.  Definitely not for me.

That was probably me! Lol~!🙂

I hate all types or porn, they are all so objectifying. I mean that chicken had a family who loved it. On weekends it might have like to socialize with her friends and watch Chick flicks! It might have had dreams of perhaps one day going to Chicken University, likely on a crossing the road scholarship, in order to improve itself. Maybe one day it would have developed into a great comedi-hen!  

 

You food porn-ers don't care about any of that. 😥 You just drool over disgusting photos of it's panko bread crumb-crusted carcass, cut open for all to gawk at, while it releases its delicious parsley and garlic butter sauce hidden inside. SHAME, SHAME on you all!

 

Man, I'm getting hungry. 😋

hahahahahahaha!!!! OMG

When leaving the terminal I always take a quick glance at the table where they have the confiscated items waiting for reclaim. 
 

It is amazing what kind of crazy stuff people try to take on the ship!!

 

Next time take a photo of the table of the confiscated items and share with us.  That would be an interesting thread to read and comment on..

You are correct. Valencia oranges are more commonly used for juice, and navel oranges are "eating" oranges. Much the same way that some varieties of apples are better for cooking, while others are better for eating out of hand.

The amount of stupid things  people want to bring on board of the ship amazes me, i.e. water, soda, now an orange juicer.

hmm, guessing for rice but I'd love to know. 

 

I once saw a family bring on their own table and chairs at Bayonne.

yeah I have a plastic one at home

thanks

Growing up in Montreal Canada, this is exactly what we used, couldn't afford any fancy schmancy electric juicer.  It worked great and my mom made a game out of it for my brother and I, so my brother and I would happily do the OJ thing every Saturday and Sunday morning.  Mom was happy to be doing other breakfast things, like cooking the "blood pudding" to go with the eggs.    

 

 

Then, during the Jr. High School and High School, (In South Florida, BTW) "Tang" came into being/popular culture.  After all, we all wanted to be astronauts, right!

Blood Pudding! Thanks for bringing back that nightmare from my childhood. 😬 I was born and started out in  Montreal with an English Mom and an Irish Dad.  Blood/black Pudding, Liver and Onions, Mashed peas, and Spotted something (can't say the word around here, but it's a desert that had beef fat and dried fruits) and that word sounds like that guy from the Rolling Stones. 🤢 And it's not Spotted Keith or Spotted Charlie. 😉

 

Didn't the Brits rule the world at some point? Why couldn't they steal some better food recipes along their travels?

Apparently black pudding, or blood pudding as I believe it is known in the States, came to the UK from Europe and apparently was a favoured dish of the Romans.

 

We can take no credit for this delicacy 😀
