V8 Vegetable Juice

What are the cons? I know its got sodium in it which isnt good. Anything else that I should be aware of? I know that its pasteurized which means alot of the nutrients in the veggie juice are destroyed in the process of preparing it.

Does it taste good? I have heard all these 'wonderful' things about it but the idea of drinking blended vegetables is quite repulsive.

^ lol shay why dont you try it out! honestly, the first time you'll find it quite repulsive, but then you might acquire the taste. Theres a fusion version which has fruit juice mixed in it, I didnt try that but I heard that tastes alot better.

Re: V8 Vegetable Juice

it is ok in moderation.

the amount of sodium is enough to keep me away from it. I used to drink it...and I still do from time to time especially when im on vacation and am not able to eat enough veggies.

eating fresh veggies is the best way to go. dont settle for v-8

Re: V8 Vegetable Juice

why do they even add sodium? as a preservative? I think it comes in a low sodium pack too, along with high fiber. someone recommended the 'extra spicy' version, but I think I'll pass! lol

Interesting, V8 with dinner! I just substitute it for water when Im really really thirsty, or realize I forgot to fill up my brita pitcher.

hehe never in my wildest imaginations I could see anyone using V8 as a ‘cooking ingredient’! :daaghu2: I guess I’ll have to try it out, next time I make pot roast! AE, u’ll be the first to try it out.

Re: V8 Vegetable Juice

spicy aint bad at all, the low sodium is okay too.
back in undergrad I used to cook with v8..just add to chicken salan :D
it was not half bad really
I dont go for it much because of the high sodium and preservatives etc

I like the 100% fruit ones Peach & Mango is yummy! I don't like the idea of veg juices
