This famous brand of juice is backed up by one of those ridiculously over-sized food sculptures the Aussies are renowned for: That's right, near the town of Berri, you can visit the Big Orange.

That is, you can at the moment. But the Big Orange, one of Australia's most recognized big things, is under threat.
