Simple answer:

You take 10 Oranges.

You squeeze their juice. Just like you'd do at home.

You put that juice on high heat to evaporate about 75% of it's water. (This doesn't make it loose nutritional value, except Vitamin C, in oranges case.)

You're left with a concentrate.

You then add SAME quantity of water that you evaporated, back to that concentrate.

Why would you do this?

Because transporting the concentrate across country is a lot less heavy, hence cheaper to transport.

Once the trucks arrive to the factories, they put the water back into the concentrate... and ship it to your local store.

IN OVERALL: Based on my research, reconstituted is NOT bad for you. It's still healthy for you. However, home made juice, squeezed with juicer, is A LOT more nutritious/healthier.

Only problem is: most people don't have time to squeeze juice from 10 oranges, nowadays.

Does evaporated milk plus condensed milk equal milk?

Evaporated milk plus water equals milk. It is reconstituted by combining a 12 oz. can of evaporated milk with 12 ounces of water. If you mean sweetened condensed milk, it is condensed and highly sweetened and is usually used in cooking for fruit salads, cream-type pies, etc. In the 1950's baby formula was evaporated milk and water. Your baby was either a "Pet" milk baby or a "Carnation" baby. Usually a tablespoon or two of powdered Dextrose-Maltose was added to this formula. In that era, dry powdered milk was often added to the recommended amount of cold water, then combined with an equal amount of fresh whole milk. This tasted better to older children than reconstituted dry milk alone. Also, in those days of whole milk, it added a bit of fat to the end product.
