how did they beat v8 or snapple to this idea? I thought they were making drinkable vegetable sludge a long time ago

v8 had v8 Splash and v8 Fusion since at least the late 90s, though I think they might be discontinued now? But it was tomato/carrot juice with berries and fruits mixed in.

V8 fusion still exists in the states.

Hmm, good to know, I definitely liked that stuff in the early '00s.

hmm, yeah guess they can't ever try frozen smoothies if they discontinue first.

Sharing what you think versus what you know is a huge problem of information literacy on the Internet and you are a part of it

You know you could have went and fact checked it yourself and then hey, you know a cool new fact yourself and you could even post a comment here corroborating him or correcting him if he is wrong. Instead you decided to be a dick though. Oh, that's literally your name..
