V8 Fusion: It May Be Good for Me, but God it Tastes so Freaking Bad!

There are tons of things that are good for us, vegetables, fruits, and more. However not all of them taste good, and for some of us, we have a hard time just swallowing them. Me... I hate spinach. I can't eat it, I can't even stand to smell the green globs of poo. Yet, it's good for me. I can be like Popeye! Ark, ark, arrk! Whoa!

For me, if I can't swallow it down, whats the point of it? Yeah it may be healthy and all, but what good is actually eating it, if I'm just going to puke it up minutes later? There really is no good if you ask me. Maybe it's good for everyone else; yeah let them get the runs from eating that crap.

I've been on a diet though for quite some time now, and as the weight comes off, I feel that even though I am eating diet foods, I need to also be intaking healthy foods along with it. As my food habits changed, and I began to chew on steamed broccoli, I realized that what I was drinking was not the greatest alternative. Juice. Juice; although some may be good/healthy for you, most of them are pumped with high fructose corn syrup. Why, I may as well just have some pop man.

While browsing the juice isle my boyfriend and I were shocked at how many carbohydrates and sugars the damn things had. Gez, drinking Welch's is actually a bad thing when it comes to dieting! Dammit! I love how that juicy, juicy goodness makes me tongue water as it slaps down tat juicy grape goodness....

Ehhh... anyways...

We came across a section of new juices from V8. V8 Fusion to be exact. The new juices were on sale for 2 for $5.00. How could we not give it a try. According to the bottle of Light Peach Mango (which is the lower calorie version of the regular (fatso's) Peach Mango juice) we would be getting a full serving of fruits and vegetables with each glass we slurped down. Gee just thinking of eating a full serving of fruits and veggies in one glass made me for some reason feel like a cow. I certainly don't sit down and eat a full serving of anything when I'm on a diet. Why start now? Oh yeah, because it's like healthy and stuff, V8 says so anyway.
