Meet the Cook: You can drink this juice plain or use it in most any recipe like chili that calls for vegetable juice as an ingredient. Coming from a family of 10 children - plus parents and a grandfather and cousin also at the table - I learned to cook out of necessity! These days, my husband is retired. We have four grown children (I make tomato juice for them, too) and six grandchildren. -Kathleen Gill, Butte, Montana

This was an awesome no brainer in my book! This juice is excellent. I had been looking for something to make my Bloody Mary's with that was low sodium and what I did find that was low sodium was not really low sodium for me. This fit the bill beyond words and I now have something for my Bloody Mary's and I can control the salt. Excellent flavor! All smiles now!
