So I know a few people who are truck drivers and one of them came upon a "dent and crush" dilemma where a few cases in the truck had damaged boxes.
I guess the protocol for their company is that damaged goods (if under a certain percentage) are covered under their insurance and the company has to pay for those items anyhow. So they sometimes give those damaged goods to the truckers because they can't sell them but they have "bought them" because the company has damaged them...
ANYHOW... So the thing is I was offered a few cases of "Welch's Grape Juice with Fiber". I looked up the ingredients and this is what I found...
INGREDIENTS: GRAPE JUICE FROM CONCENTRATE (FILTERED WATER, GRAPE JUICE CONCENTRATE), GRAPE JUICE, MALTODEXTRIN (DIETARY FIBER), ASCORBIC ACID (VITAMIN C); NO ARTIFICIAL FLAVORS OR COLORS ADDED.
I'm just wondering if anyone knew if Maltodextrin would be a problem for wine making... If not, I just scored myself 16 (64oz) bottles of juice for free...
Thoughts? Suggestions?
