Best Drink Ever. Amaas120 23:43, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

Quite. 24.94.20.226 23:38, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

Yeah I can't stop drinking this for some reason. I don't even like it. Ajisukitakahikon 02:57, 13 October 2006 (UTC)

Should there be a section on the health benefits of V8? --Sargos 06:50, 11 July 2006 (UTC)

I don't think so, unless there is some reputable, unbiased (i.e. not sponsored by Campbell's or other interested parties) study that focussed solely on V8. Otherwise it'd be totally POV and open to debate and probably original research. — Frecklefoot | Talk 14:51, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
Some unbiased research would be great. It's been around for so long, you think there would be someting out there.
Is anything wrong with saying "Campbell's claims..." so and so? 12.22.58.49 23:03, 30 August 2006 (UTC) (Too Lazy to Sign In)
Well, in the UK, a lot of food packaging has text on it saying "Counts as XX of your 5 a day", referring to your recommended 5 a day portions of fruit and veg. Apparently (I'm not sure how accurate this is), 384ml of V8 counts as 2 of your 5 a day portions...

[edit] V8 Fusion vs. UK 100% veggie & fruit drink

Does anybody know if the UK ingredient list for V8 Fusion is the same as that found (and posted) in the US? Prior comment seemed to indicate that carrots were the only vegetable in Peach and Mango, yet carrots aren't even found in the ingredients list. JCoug 13:33, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] sugars?

The original V8 juice list of ingredients includes sugar. Is this added table sugar or naturally occuring sugar like in tomatoes and other fruits and vegetables?Jlujan69 22:29, 13 October 2006 (UTC)

Well, they have the ingredients listed here and sugar isn't listed. Is it one of the V8 Splash products you're thinking of? They do have "high fructose corn syrup", which isn't natural—it's added to make the drinks sweeter. — Frecklefoot | Talk 16:04, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] nutritiondata.com

I found this on nutritiondata.com which seems to be V8:

Could this be V8? And if so, shouldn't be added to the links section? Danny 01:46, 2 November 2006 (UTC)
