Man . . . this learning new things is a thorough pain in the ass. Just a few days (or so) ago I was all excited about drinking V8 and feeling good about that, enjoying it, getting the extra vegetable hit . . . and today I was checking out some shit on fooducate.com, which is quickly becoming an indispensable resource in this Battle of My Bulge, and I saw that V8 was given a grade of B-. Say what? For vegetable juice? How could you possibly fuck up vegetable juice?
Well, this seems to be the way (if you want a recipe for how to fuck up vegetable juice):
Sodium 590mg 26% Daily Need
Added Sugars 8g 33% Daily Need
Mmm-hmm.
Plus the added information that the juice is sometimes stored for as long as a year before it is put into those lovely plastic bottles.
I was disappointed, but hell, there're lots of other juices out there, right? So I started looking . . . and it looks like they're all pretty much shit. I couldn't find any kind of juice that got higher than a grade of B from fooducate. And y'know . . . that's really not good enough for my body these days. Cause it's a temple, y'know. So fuck V8, man. Back to water.
