I haven't try that yet...I'll check it out. I do like V8 but I'd like to try something different. Thanks for the heads up.

I read the label more carefully. Five percent juice. I now think the 2 gram per cup carb count is accurate. The flavor's better than you would think for five percent.

I've been buying the Ocean Spray for a couple of years now. They have introduced new flavors in the last year. I like the Grape and Cranberry ones the best. And I agree, for the low carb, the flavor is much better than you'd think. The Cranberry could also be used for cocktails.
I'm sure we'll hear from someone complaining they are Frankenfoods before long.

When I read the label carefully I thought of "Sunny Delite" which is a high carb drink based on orange juice. It tastes better than you'd think. It's ingredients are closer to Tang than to real OJ but it tastes closer to OJ than to Tang.

Chuckle. I tried them as an alternate to V8 in the morning. I don't know where Frankenfood starts but they aren't in the same class as V8 to me.

Franken foods are genetically modified organisms (GMO). They offer the cabbage mosaic virus which turns on the inserted DNA (or any other dormant genetic material that it may attach itself to). The inserted DNA may want to transcribe proteins the the host cell is unfamiliar with, resulting in unique proteins (re: allergens).
