I Coulda Had a V-8!



When I was at the Campbell's headquarters a couple months ago, they served us a delicious breakfast. Along with the yummy food, they had a variety of drinks out for us to try. I looked at the V-8 V-Fusion and thought, "Ewww! There's just something so wrong about drinking vegetables!" Another blogger overheard me and insisted it didn't taste like veggies, so I gave it a try. I LOVED it! I mean, really LOVED it! I tried the pomegranate blueberry flavor and it was so good! It doesn't taste even a little bit like vegetables! I was so surprised. I mean, I don't like tomato soup. I don't like tomato juice (not even with vodka). Yuck! But this stuff is GOOD!

Later in the day, we were able to taste test all the flavors of V-Fusion and they were really de-lish! The coolest part is that each 8 ounce glass has a full serving of fruits and a full serving of vegetables! So, if you have kids like mine, this is great news! Brooklyn ate a tablespoon of peanut butter and a jelly bean she found in the couch, for lunch yesterday (don't ask). Needless to say, although her diet is high in sugar, ketchup, and chocolate, it's somewhat lacking in actual food and nutrients. But, she loves juice! So I know if she drinks a glass of V-Fusion, she'll get 2 servings from the fruit and vegetable group and that makes me feel good! Plus V-Fusion doesn't have artificial colors, flavors, preservatives, or added sugar. Now that's something any mom can feel good about!

Since my Campbell's trip, I've been buying V-Fusion regularly for my kids (and me). This is a product I feel really good about giving to my kids and I try to keep it on hand. Try it for yourselves with this $1 off coupon HERE!

For my readers, Campbell's is offering a case of the new V8 V-Fusion® 100% juice varieties and an embroidered V8 V-Fusion® L.L. Bean tote and boat bag, a retail value of: $75.00. Just leave me a comment here and I'll choose a random winner on Monday, May, 18. Good luck!

Sue daisy said...

so so good...were only 2.99 at super target the other day...

Nicole said...

I have been drinking V8 since I was a kid. My dad bought it originally thinking I definitely wouldn't drink it because it was packed full of veggies. Boy was he ever wrong. I now nicely *persuade* my 2 kids to drink it as well and thus far Fusion is a hit. My son (who is 3) walks around all the time saying "i want pomegwamit booberry" - haha - his favorite v8 fusion flavor!

lilkj said...

I would love to try these. I've had their other juice, V-8 Splash, but the Fusion looks so much better.

Healthy and yummy... I think they have turned this brand around! As long as they can get people to try it anyway since most this V8=veggie drink. I prefer the fruit oriented ones myself!

Bug said...

Crossing my fingers! I remember loving V-8 as a kid!

I hope this is my lucky day. Today my oldest turns 16 (yep gray hair coming) and my youngest turns nine. My youngest, adopted from Poland loves V8 Fusion, his favorite is the Strawberry Banana, apparently it tastes like a kind he liked in Poland.

I've never tried it b/c I never liked the regular V-8 (tomato). Sounds like I should pick one up. Thanks Dawn.
