V8 (drink)

Common card · No. 218792

V8 ("V-8" until mid-1987) is a trademarked name for a number of beverage products sold worldwide that are made from eight vegetables, or a mixture of vegetables and fruits. Since 1948, the brand has been owned by Campbell's. The original "V-8" vegetable juice was tomato-based and got its name from the fact that it contained juice from eight different vegetables. The 1941 Loudon Packing Company V-8 label gave these ingredients: "8 vegetable juices combined—tomato, celery, carrot, parsley, lettuce, beet, spinach, watercress, spices and salt."
