O brave new world that has such beverages in't!

The Campbell Soup Company, makers of V-8 100% vegetable juice, have come out with a brave new beverage: V-Fusion. Each 8-ounce glass of V-Fusion counts as a full serving of fruit and a full serving of vegetables! Why? How? It's a fruit-vegetable fusion! You can have a glass full of strawberry and tomato, sweet potato and banana--all at once!

This has nothing to do with LJ Rabbit Hole Day. The V-8 people actually came up with this product, and I actually bought the strawberry-banana flavor. I'm not at all sure which fact scares me more. (Curiosity is a dangerous thing.)

For those of you wondering: the juice does taste like strawberry and banana... and a bit of tomato. A tomato may be a fruit in the botanical sense, but I remain unconvinced that it has any business mixing it up with bananas and strawberries.

hehe - kind of like the blue, green and purple ketchup

at least for me, I LOVE veggies :D

I've never had the funny colored ketchups. Do they taste any different?

I'm a veggie fan too! Unlike a lot of people, I actually love the original V-8.

nope, tasted the same - just made your bread look moldy :)

Mmm... moldy bread. Heh.

I never really have used ketchup much. If they made purple salsa, though, I'd probably buy it.

Me, too. I have a bottle of original V-8 in my fridge, right now :) If I'm going to mix original V-8 with *anything* it's going to be vodka.

I like to mix original V8 with hot sauce. Sure, they've got spicy V8 in cans already, but it's more fun to decide for myself just how hot I want my drinks to be.
