My mom just bought some glasses that are about half the size of a normal glass. I think they are called juice glasses. Why are they so small? I usually never use them because I like more than a shot of juice.

Juice contains a great amount of sugar and so should be consumed in small amounts. Also, juice is typically served at breakfast and generally a fruit is served with the entree. Therefore, a small amount of juice only is necessary. This is more formal than today's breakfast standards.

Nobody cared about sugar content when juice glasses were introduced. They smoked, drank, and ate artery clogging foods for every meal. Small juice glasses were a trend because one would always have a cup of Joe at breakfast, it just comes down to liquid portion control.

Depending on the size of the oranges and the juice contents for a 4 ounce glass you need 2 oranges

A serving of juice if 4 oz. It is small because most juice is loaded with sugars and not all of it is natural.

Because 1/2 cup of juice is one serving. This is a normal portion and it is what you should get use to drinking and stick to. Try to stop super sizing you'll feel better for it. Juice is condensed calories 1/2 cup is about 100 calories which is just about enough.

You know, when you empty a glass, you can put more in it! It may have to do with the fact that that is how much juice comes out of a freshly squeezed orange.

A very good query. We have juice glasses which I hardly use. I like bigger glasses of OJ.
