V8 Fusion

I just went grocery shopping. Oof, lugging all that crap in by myself SUCKS. Especially when you've got three 2 litres of seltzer, a 12 pack of seltzer, two bottles of apple juice for Jen, orange juice, a gallon of milk...

But V8 Fusion was on sale. You know, that fruit juice that claims to have a full serving of vegetables or whatever. I don't usually drink juice (too sweet for me) but I also don't tend to eat a lot of vegetables. So whatever, I thought I would try it.

It is INCREDIBLY sweet. I diluted it half and half (I tend to dilute my juice more than that, actually. When I drink apple juice I put in about 25% apple juice and 75% water.) because I wanted to actually get SOME of this Hot Vegetable Action, and it's... okay. Too sweet.

But hey, vegetables!

Of the 4 flavors of V8 Fusion, there's only one that I can drink uncut (the rest are just too sweet). But the veggie fact is true! Beet juice and carrot juice, gag-free!

I guess I like sweet stuff because I love that v8 fusion (never drink it though, too expensive). Can't stand straight up v8 though.

bolthouse farms sells a juice called "green goodness" that is chock full of veggie-goodness, and isn't as overly sweet. it tastes awesome though. you just have to get over the green look of it.

since greta only eats one veggie (orange bell peppers), i mix it with oj and give it to her in a sippy. :)

What's up with all the seltzer? :)

You can never have too much seltzer.

I actually love the V8 Fruision stuff.. well... I can't eat super sweet things now, or drink them... so it's kinda ew now, but before.... I loved it. I like the apple juice from WIC. It's not terribly sweet, but it's good.
