Question about raw JUVO drink

[mindelicious]

Ok so I was at a small health food store over the weekend and saw a box of JUVO on the clearance chelf. It was a box of 15 for $55. the box had been opened so I counted them and there was only 14. I asked the manager if they were still selling the whole thing or seperate packets. He said he would work out a price for me. 50 cents a piece!!
But i have a question he showed me the date on the bottom it said NOvember 2005. I am wondering if anyone has a box and if this is the date of manufacture or the date which it is no longer any good.
Thanks for the help

JUVO is not raw, and I wouln't buy it, even at 50cents a piece, just blend up fruits and veggies and drink that, sooooooo much more "real" food, that anything in a packet.

I actually just saw this product at the whole foods where I work tonight and wasn't convinced by it. It doesn't really appear to be raw even though it says it is, but that is my personal opinion. I'll look at the date on it tomorrow when I am at work. That's interesting about the date. Hmmmm...

RAW on a label does NOT mean a raw foodist's raw, all it means is it isnt cooked, it could be heated to 280 degrees, like cold pressed olive oil, it could be heated to 160 degrees like RAW honey, but that doesn't mean it is raw to OUR standards.
