This was most noticeable in my decision-making process when purchasing juice. I realize that buying juice is a relatively easy task, however I am a very inexperienced shopper.<\/p>\n<p>When looking at all of the choices at the supermarket, I was first drawn to the brands that I had heard of, not considering those that I had never previously seen. Most of the choices were already disregarded. Next, I narrowed my potential list by filtering out the brands that were &#8220;unacceptable&#8221; to me.
