Letter: Letters: Juicy mistake

Published 3 July 1993

From KAY BAGON

Re ‘Applejuicegate’ (Thistle Diary, 12 June). Had the junior minister
Nicholas Soames followed his own advice when stating, ‘we do not do anything
unless the advice is both scientific and substantiated’, he would not have
then gone on to say, ‘we should not forget that apple juice is a useful
source of Vitamin C’, since there is virtually no vitamin C in apple juice.
