APPLE CIDER ARGUMENT. · 8:01pm Dec 20th, 2012
I am starting this blog because I am tired of the arguement that the cider on MLP FIM is alcoholic. HERE ARE THE ANSWERS NOT STOP BUGGING ME PLEASE.Here are several quotes that explain the diffrence between applejuice and cider, and the diffrence between alcoholic and non-alcoholic cider.
Apple juice and apple cider are both fruit beverages made from apples, but there is a difference between the two. Fresh cider is raw apple juice that has not undergone a filtration process to remove coarse particles of pulp or sediment.
Apple cider (also called sweet cider or soft cider) is the name used in the United States and parts of Canada for an unfiltered, unsweetened, non-alcoholic beverage made from apples. Apple cider is easy and inexpensive to produce.[1] It may be opaque due to fine apple particles in suspension and may be tangier than conventional filtered apple juice, depending on the apples used.[2]
This untreated cider is a seasonally produced drink[3] of limited shelf-life that is typically available only in fall, although it is sometimes frozen for use throughout the year. It is traditionally served on the Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas and various New Year's Eve holidays, sometimes heated and mulled. It is the official state beverage of New Hampshire.[4]
Although the term cider is used for the fermented alcoholic drink in most of the world, the term hard cider is used for the alcoholic drink in the United States and much of Canada.
In the United States, the difference between apple juice and cider is not well established.[5] Some states do specify a difference. For example, according to the Massachusetts Department of Agricultural Resources, "Apple juice and apple cider are both fruit beverages made from apples, but there is a difference between the two. Fresh cider is raw apple juice that has not undergone a filtration process to remove coarse particles of pulp or sediment. Apple juice is juice that has been filtered to remove solids and pasteurized so that it will stay fresh longer. Vacuum sealing and additional filtering extend the shelf life of the juice."[6] In Canada, the Canadian Food Inspection Agency also regulates "unpasteurized apple cider".[7]
There you have it. Please research your topics before starting an arguement. All this information can be found on wikipedia if you search apple cider. The diffrence between juice and cider is like the diffrence between orange juice with pulp and orange juice without pulp. If you try to argue that your from another part of the world where cider only means the alcoholic beverage, just don't. The show is made n America and therefore uses American terms. Cider in American terms is Non-alcoholic. HARD cider is the only american alcoholic cider.
YAY, now the PM's will stop hopefully.
Some people will argue about anything, it would seem.
PMs are good. They show your loved
R some people that stupid as to argue about whether its alcoholic or non alcoholic cider
