Having tried Campbell's V8 100% Vegetable Juice and liked it very much, I thought that trying one that contains fruit and carrot juice at the same time would be a good idea. Campbell's V8 100% Fruit & Vegetable Juice, as I thought, provides the balance of enjoying the usual fruit juice with carrot rather than the vegetable juice which is way different than what we are used to, for it contains spices and no sugar.

I bought this one from Asda for £1.08 and it can be bought from Tesco for the same price which is good value for money considering it is a long life fruit juice from concentrate. This product contains the juice of seven kinds of fruit: (Apple 38%, Orange 14%, Pear, Pineapple 8%, Passion Fruit 2.5%, White Grape and Banana) in addition to carrot juice. Still, it tastes of carrot and other indistinct juices.

I'm not complaining here for I like carrot juice very much but its flavour is so dominant that you feel you are drinking carrot juice with an added flavour. The picture of all the different kinds of fruit on the box promises you with a nice blend of juices, but carrot dominates all.

This juice contains no artificial flavourings, colours or preservatives, no added sugar, and is naturally low fat. A glass of 150ml of it gives 53 calories only and 62% of your recommended daily amount of Vitamin A. So, it is definitely recommended for the price, shelf life, and nutritious side, but you should like carrot juice to enjoy it.
