Many prisons ban or heavily restrict fruits and juices because of people making pruno on the sly, so inmates would make it using bread and potatoes.

End result was a massive botulism outbreak.

The juice typically has sulphites added to kill yeast. This is why if you are going to make hard cider, you have to look around to find cider without sulphites at actual orchards. You won't find it at a grocer.
