I recently bought the vegetable juice to get my daily vitamins. I tasted it and it was horrible! Anybody got suggestions what to do with it like smoothies or something?

    Too much sodium but my hubby likes it with Hot Sauce added.

    Pour it down the drain.. LOL...

    Seriously; make your own smoothies or juices with fresh fruit - and if you cannot get hold of them, frozen..

    I love V8!! It's my favorite drink besides water. But if veggie juice isn't for you, try V8 Splash. It is fruity and has lots of flavors to choose from. You still get all your vitamins from it. :smile:

    I love it but had to stop drinking it due to the high sodium

    I use V8 as the base in my chili and vegetable soup recipes instead of the regular tomato juice. Super yummy and my family and I are getting so many more vitamins per serving!

    Use it to make stew. http://www.crockpot-recipe.com/stew/v8-beef-stew-recipe-crock-pot-soup-recipes/viewlink.html

    I'm sure there are other recipes you could find, too.

    Personally I love it but other ways to use it, a splash into scrambled eggs instead of milk is really nice.

    I drink V8 fruit fusion juice every morning. It comes in a few different flavors, but it isn't really all that low calorie, so you have to allot for it in your daily intake.

    lol it is delicious so salty and yummy. Now if you dont like the stuff i would suggest not drinking it. to get rid of it use it as a soup base, chilli etc. or sell them to someone give them tot he company that comes over. lol turn them into Cesars when company comes over.

    They have V8 splash. The thing with V8 juice it's very high in sodium. The V8 splash is good but high in sugar. Cant win!! Take a multi vitamin and eat fruits and veggies.

    I actually drink the Low Sodium version of V8.

    I am not a huge fan of it, but just suck it up and chug down.

    There is another V8 kind called V8 V-Fusion which is Fruit and Vegetable juice that tastes much better and gives you a full day serving of Fruit and Vegetables.

    Also, as someone else has recommended, putting it in soups or even if you were making spaghetti sauce or something of that nature you can put it in there.
