I just got a new juicer, and I was thinking the boys would probably enjoy the pulp left over. Aside from making sure they don't get the stuff they can't have anyway, is there anything I should keep in mind about this? Will the pulp still taste good/be healthy for them?
fruit pulp?

It should be very healthy if it's freshly squeezed. The only thing I would caution is just not too much fruit, it can give them very wet poop.
Well, they seemed to be very happy with their little pile of fancy apple mush. :3
I was mostly just concerned a) that all the taste would have gone out into the juice, and b) all the healthy stuff would have gone out into the juice. But tasting the apple mush myself made it fairly clear the taste was still there, and it's not like it heats the stuff, so the good stuff should still be in it, too.

I once read that most of the nutrients are in the peel anyways.
You're making me hungry. :giggle:

Correct me if I am wrong, with males would you have to avoid orange juice due to the fact that it has shown to be a contributing cause of cancer, or have they found that to be wrong now?

its actually the rind/pulp in the orange that contains the limonene-d that causes the cancer, so its good to hear you are already taking these precautions.

Not only is it the in the rind, but the boys would have to drink a phenomenal amount for it to cause cancer.
