> I mean, Juicero, what was that crap, anyway? People can argue that it was too expensive or over-designed. But I don't think the basic idea is as ridiculous as people make it seem. "You can just juice it yourself!" Sure, but the same can be said for a Keurig machine, and they're extremely popular. Having watched what it would take to juice the Juicero packs on your own and having made my own Keurig pods without a machine, my guess is it's probably easier to do your own Keurig (and the Keurig machines seem to be more susceptible to getting dirty than Juicero machines). Keep in mind they weren't juice packs that were being squeeze, but rather they were pieces of fruit and vegetables that could have the juices readily squeezed out. I haven't tried the juice - just about no one has - but if it was able to give the taste of fresh squeezed juice in seconds time it seems it would at least be notable. There's not really a better solution at the moment (actual juicing takes a lot of time and is very messy and store juice isn't as tasty).
