I used the general cleanup tag because I'm in a hurry (sorry): The new notation that Anthony Rossi was anillegal immigrant has no references cited, may be vandalism, may be NPOV. If it is true, any reliable source verifying it ought to have info on when/whether he became a U.S. legal resident and/or citizen, which should be added to the article.

"Recently Tropicana released a range of 'functional fruit juices' targeted at the health conscientious consumer. These fruit juice drinks in the Essentials range include juices with added Multivitimins, Fibre, Calcium as well as light orange juice beverage with half of the calories and sugar of regular orange juice."
The spelling and grammar is terrible. Also, it just sounds like an ad, not a functional description.
I'd edit it, but "functional fruit juices" and "recently" are not defined in this section. "half of the calories and sugar of regular orange juice" is also an ambiguous sentence. What constitutes "regular" orange juice?

There is a Lemon flavored Tropicana Tw!ster soda? I have never seen it around here, but it might still exist.Robsharpe200100:11, 8 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I watched that on Late Night With Conan O'Brien at 1:00 this morning and since Novak was talking about how his other article got on wikipedia i decided to put this one on too.

I removed the earlier mentioned section because no one had bothered to fix it and it has no actual information or sources.

My name is Maureen Meier and I am an employee of Tropicana Consumer Relations. I wanted to help clear up the content in your "Plastic Carton" section around BPA (bisphenol A) (BPA), which hasn't been cited.
The root of BPA consumer concerns stems around a plastic called Polycarbonate. Polycarbonate contains BPA and is the hard plastic resin typically used in re-usable 5 gallon water bottles for home and office use as well as some personal re-usable water bottles. Polycarbonate is coded #7 since it does not have a specific code. Plastics that do not have their own symbol or those that consist of multiple layers of materials are all lumped together under #7 Other.
Tropicana products use a variety of packages and are made from PET (polyethylene terephthalate) ((link tohttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyethylene_terephthalate )) and HDPE (high Density Polyethylene) ((link tohttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-density_polyethylene )). These packages do not use BPA and pose no health risks.
For Tropicana, the #7 material coding is used to identify multi layer materials because our HDPE bottles contain a small amount of nylon material to maintain freshness. Although these bottles are fully recycle-able in the #2 HDPE recycling stream, we are required by law to code them as #7 "other" to designate that they contain more than one material.
What is important for consumers to understand is that the numbers placed on the bottom of plastic containers are 'resin codes' ((link tohttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resin_identification_code )) whose sole purpose is to indicate the type of plastic from which the item is made. They were designed so consumers could identify if they are recyclable in their community and were never intended to serve as a way to identify the presence of BPA .
I've attached several links to independent sources for your consideration.http://www.factsonplastic.com/http://www.bisphenol-a.org/http://www.ameribev.org/news-detail/index.aspx?nid=136Thank you for your time and consideration.

In an effort to remove the Cleanup tag, I am going to attempt to update this article for general quality and content, and will look for citations to support the information currently in the article, too.Kat Malone (talk)15:25, 22 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I have done a preliminary scan of this article per an assessment request on thefood and drink assessment page. This article needs improvement in the following areas:
There is more that needs to be done, and I corrected several of the worst problems. I would still only give it a "C" as it stands now. --Jeremy(blah blah)20:11, 18 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
even though it was founded by an American it was under the Canadian company that it flourished, going global, introducing bottled drinks.i'm not going to add it because i've done adds like that before only to have them deleted by someone who frequents the page.
is that legal? not to mention ethical, practical. etc.66.81.255.165 (talk)03:40, 28 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Tropicana Products →Tropicana Brands Group – The sole oppose at the previous RM failed to account forWP:NAMECHANGES. By a strict reading ofWP:COMMONNAME this should be at the simple "Tropicana", and in fact it's quite arguable that this is theWP:PRIMARYTOPIC of the base name per long-term-significance criteria, but since the disambiguation page sits at the base title, this one needs natural disambiguation. But the current title is outdated. Leaving at a title that's been outdated for four years based on ignoring NAMECHANGES leaves the article factually incorrect. The article body has had the correct current name of the company for a while. The title needs to match that.oknazevad (talk)09:03, 16 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
