In an emailed statement, the company said it uses ‘an added boost of vitamins’ in some of the drinks.  But the lawsuit filed against the company noted that the vitamins are actually synthetic ingredients, including a fiber made by Archer Daniels Midland.

PepsiCo did not respond when asked whether those synthetic fibers are in fact included in the juices.
