Yeah, it's that time of year, too. Also the time of year for colds.
I've had sinus issues the past few weeks (result of allergies here) that
have also made me feel like crap.

Yuck if you're drinking it straight - what about orange juice? That
tastes better than the raw stuff and is full of it.

Actually I'm drinking a mixture of dextrose and ascorbic acid. Put it in
my tea instead of sucrose. Tastes damned weird!
Also, I've been drinking a lot of blackcurrent, which apparently
contains significantly more of it than orange juice. (Then again, I'm
drinking blackcurrent squash, not juice, so...)

Here, some girlies drink Lager and Black(current juice). We give our
kids Ribena to make them strong and healthy.

Exposure to oxygen, metals, light, or heat destroys ascorbic acid,
Putting it in hot tea is therefore a non-event.
(Putting it in iced tea is another story... but who drink iced tea anyway ?)
Cold water is all you need if it must be disolved.

I wouldn’t ever say that about the French who are the epitome of good
taste when it comes to food and drink.
I have a fondness for Ricard Pastis

:-) Personally, I prefer Italian, but my stepson is in Paris right now,
and I know he'd agree with you.

I was wondering about that, actually. I guess I assumed that since it
still tastes of orange skins there must still be some in there...
BTW, did you know that apparently most organisms can synthesize ascorbic
acid? Humans actually have the entire synthesis pathway intact, except
for one faulty enzyme right at the end. But because what humans
naturally eat contains ascorbic acid anyway, it wasn't a
life-threatening mutation...

From my reading “Italian” food is America’s preferred style of eating
out. Personally I think it is over rated. My favourite “foreign” food is
Chinese.
