Is there a veggie drink similar to v8 but not tomato based?
I recently found out I have a severe allergy to tomatoes (yes, it developed overnight...literally, yes, that happens often, no, the doctors don't know why...it just did). The problem is I'm not usually very good about getting all the fruits and veggies I need throughout the day. I used to balance that by drinking some of the v8 line drinks (splash and fusion as well as regular v8) but all of them are tomato based and I can't touch them now. Does anyone know of any alternatives that can give the same portions of veggies (without having chunks of stuff in it...it's a texture thing) that isn't tomato based? I've been looking at the local grocery and specialty stores but I've only been able to find v8 and products like it. I could really use some help. Thanks for your suggestions.
Where would I find v7, and what's in it?

Here is a website called Smoothie Web with hundreds of recipes for making your own nutritious beverages. Most of them are incredibly easy, and they are less expensive than the V-8 drinks, plus you can control other ingredients like salt, sugar, high fructose corn syrup, etc. Choose any recipes with the fruits and vegetables you love the best.
For optimal nutrition, I recommend the "Green Smoothie" section. Dark leafy greens are rich in calcium and other nutrients, and most people do not get enough of them in their diet. Great news - they are inexpensive!
Sorry to hear about your allergy, and congratulations for making all these attempts to get plenty of fruits and vegetables into your diet. Best wishes!

Check out Bolthouse farms products
They are really tasty and are all 100 juice or juice and veggies. No sugar or corn syrup. Found in most supermarkets in the fresh fruit and veggie section. Must be kept refrigerated.

i thought v8 fusion was carrot-juice based? I would try organic food stores. Also, if you can't find anything you might just have to get a blender and start making smoothies.

I definitely prefer fruit and vegetables more. I don't like all the acid in many fruits.
