pineapple20087 says "This gatorade has amazing taste and quenches your thirst!" about Gatorade Glacier Freeze

pineapple20087 — Wed, 02 Dec 2009 00:07:09 GMT

There are so many athletes in the world today that need a sports drink to satisfy them. The athletes need to be hydrated and replenished so they're bodies can keep working as they play and love their own sport. Gatorade Glacier Freeze is delicious tasting gatorade that is a light blue color. Like all gatorade, it is to keep the athletes hydrated so they can perform to their very best. There are many different flavors of gatorade and this one happens to be my personal favorite. As an athlete, I am always buying this flavor of gatorade. It doesn't necessarily make me perform better compared to if I drink a different flavor of gatorade, but it tastes better to me. It's not too sweet, it is just right. I love gatorade also because you can buy it in packs and make it separately if you don't want to buy the bottles all the time. Glacier Freeze has such a great taste and it always keeps me hydrated when I need it the most.

PattyLin says "Healthy and tasty." about Naked Green Machine

PattyLin — Tue, 01 Dec 2009 04:59:24 GMT

Naked juices are all natural with no sugar added. It's a 100% fruit juice smoothie with "boosts" added (ex. barley grass, or wheat grass). In one small bottle, you get the equivalent of several servings of fruit (in this particular one, there are 2.75 apples, .5 banana, .33 kiwi, ,33 mango and "a hint of pineapple". It is expensive for one drink and is overpriced considering the price of the original fruits, but it's still a tasty and healthy drink. As a college student who doesn't have the greatest eating habits, this is great for me. It's a quick fix for fruit I need (eating fruit can be messy and sticky, but with Naked juice, I can pretty much drink 2.75 apples). If you're an "always on the go" type of person, this drink is perfect for you!

Just a little more info on this drink, 280 calories, none from fat.

100% Vitamin A, 80% Vitamin C, 56g of sugar (but remember, these are all sugars found naturally in the fruits).

There are other things, but you'll just have to grab a bottle for youself...

Elephantwoman says "Great alternative to more expensive brands,and you'l feel great " about Genesis Today Genesis Today,Acai Berry juice.

Elephantwoman — Tue, 24 Nov 2009 20:52:02 GMT

I discovered Genesis Today Acai Berry juice by accident.I was purchasing some orange juice for my kids at Walmart and saw with the corner of my eye this dark colored juice.I always wanted to try Acai berry something and saw this juice.It had great things on it that stated: supports energy levels,WEIGHT control!,skin hair and nails,and antioxidant levels.That was all good things for me to try and it was inexpensive.Now,the price for Acai berry vitamins or extracts espcially ones that are pure and such can be pricey,believe me I checked! So the price for this juice although a bit high wasnt too much of a scare for me,$6.98 for a 64oz bottle.I also found the same exact juice at Sam's Club for $5.88! So if your a member and wanna save some change then go get it there.This isnt a jucie to quench thirst this is like a juice you have 1 or 2 times a day,and more specifically for yourself,i would recommend keeping away from the kids, it gives a great energy boost(something kids dont really need,unless...

brigi3 says "Ocean Spray Cranberry Juice is the Best" about Ocean Spray 100% Cranberry Juice

brigi3 — Mon, 16 Nov 2009 16:11:24 GMT

Ocean Spray Cranberry juice is wonderful. I like the low sugar option. I try to drink a lot of water everyday for my health but it gets boring. I just add a few ounces of Ocean Spray Low Sugar Cranberry juice to my water and it wakes up my tastebuds. I work out alot too and always like to take a water bottle with me on my power walks/runs. I always pour a few ounces of Ocean Spray Cranberry juice into my water bottle. It's very tasty, Not too tart and not too sweet. I also like that it comes in large bottles so it lasts me a long time and I don't have to run to the store too ofter to re-stock. It comes in small carrying bottles too but I don't think that's eco friendly. I prefer to buy the larges bottles and then pour it into my re-usable sports water bottle. Cranberry has great health benefits too like anti-oxidants. I would recommend this product to all my friends and family.

KaciOhio says "Simply pulpy and very tart..." about Simply Lemonade

KaciOhio — Mon, 02 Nov 2009 17:08:07 GMT

I love the Simply Orange Juice its great and I can stand the pulpy pieces in that but in the Lemonade I can't stand the pulp that floats on the top and its way too tart for me! It states on the front its NOT FROM CONCENTRATE and they use all natural ingredients which I love but could have done without the natural sugar. 1 Bottle is 190 Calories in 400ml or 13.5 fl oz., No fat, 25mg sodium which is great, 50mg carbs, 47g Sugars....ick!. Very low sodium and pasteurized. I enjoy the Simply brand very much but this is just icky to me. I won't buy it again. The containers are nice too, good for saving.

AnnaBanana says "Just in time for Halloween ... a Monster which we can all love!" about Odwalla Blueberry B Monster Smoothie

AnnaBanana — Fri, 30 Oct 2009 18:44:19 GMT

Tucked down inside my Peapod delivery the other day was an Odwalla Blueberry B Monster Smoothie. Now that the price had been marked down from $3.79 to $2.50 on sale, I was willing to give it a try and was rewarded for my daring sense of adventure. Even though I am fussy about "smoothies," I have to say that this one was delicious, This thick dark purple beverage is a blend of ingredients including orange, apple, and concord grape juices along with blueberry, mango and banana purees which produces a flavor both a little more tart and fruitlike and also a tad sweeter than a Starbucks Strawberry Banana Vivanno.

STATS:

Because of the rich density of this product, there really are two servings in a 15.2 fl. oz. bottle, with each serving containing 140 calories with none from fat. There is zero each Total and Trans Fats, 10 mg. Sodium, 34 gramsTotal Carbs, 23 grams Sugars and zero Protein. Now comes the exciting part: 4% (D.V.) Folate, 25% Vitamin C, 45% Niacin, 60% each Pantothenic...

brenviewer says "Tasty and the extra Vitamin C was timely...I think" about Northland Cranberry Blackberry Juice

brenviewer — Fri, 16 Oct 2009 02:31:10 GMT

I like Northland Cranberry Blackberry Juice. It was different from the Ocean Spray Cranberry juices I've had. It took a bit of getting used to though, the blackberry flavor. It also has relevant health benefits like being gluten free (great news for food allergy sufferer), containing antioxidant-rich blackberries, and having 120% vitamin C.

Still, for advertising it had no sugar added, Northland's Cranberry Blackberry has a lot of sugar at 31 grams. Although vitamin C is advertised as helping strengthen the immune system and combat colds--both welcome during 4-5 month Ohio winters--I'm not convinced that taking in more than the daily intake is the right answer.

We've enjoyed various cranberry juices from different brands and the Northland brand is among my favorites. I'll be looking to see if Northland has a light or diet line of cranberry juices though. Regular juices are usually too sweet for me. I've become accustomed to the lighter versions. I'll keep you posted what I...

onwaytozion says "I wake up to Bolthouse Mocha Cappucino rather than coffee" about bolthouse Perfectly Protein Mocha Cappuccino

onwaytozion — Tue, 13 Oct 2009 19:31:26 GMT

My health kicks usually come and go, but this one is so good that it stayed with me. I was trying to find a cool, healthy alternative to my morning cup of coffee. After one serving of Bolthouse Farms Mocha Cappuccino, I decided this was it!

According to the label, this product is Gluten Free, has No Preservatives, No Artificial Colors, No Artificial Flavors, and No Genetically Modified Ingredients. According to my taste buds, it tastes delicious!

Mocha Cappuccino is a blend of just enough Arabica coffee, cocoa (chocolate!), and vanilla extract in low-fat milk. It has a taste that wakes up and energizes without shocking the system. I whole-heartedly endorse it.

KaciOhio says "Sunny D Tangy Original is so good I could roll around in it. " about Sunny Delight SunnyD Tangy Original Citrus Punch

KaciOhio — Thu, 08 Oct 2009 16:15:28 GMT

My husband got me hooked on Sunny D years ago. I was a regular orange juice drinker with the pulp and I'm not anymore. This is a better flavor Its 100% Vitamin C and its 90 Calories in 8 oz which is great in my book. It tastes like orange juice to an extent even though its orange flavored citrus punch and I just enjoy it a lot more. I can buy 1 gallon for a few bucks and it lasts a whole week. I am actually drinking it right now. It's good with breakfast food, some sausage and pancakes and with dinner! It's an all day drink not like orange juice which I just like to drink with my breakfast. It only contains 5% juice but hey I don't care I like the taste and I will buy it every week as I've done for years. I have 3 kids and they go nuts over it, my 2 year old son loves it, his absolute favorite drink and he runs for the refridgerator every morning with his sippee cup saying "juice" its so cute. I love Sunny D and If you haven't ever tried it pick up a jug, you can usually find the smaller...

brenviewer says "Bonk yourself if you aren't drinking V-8 Fusion" about V8 V-Fusion Acai Mixed Berry 100% Juice

brenviewer — Thu, 08 Oct 2009 00:41:12 GMT

V-8 Fusion Acai Berry is excellent. Great taste, fortified with the vitamins, nutrients, and goodness of the veggies and fruits blended in. I've got to tell you, i haven't and don't plan on drinking the original V-8. Something about drinking tomatoes and carrots just didn't appeal to me. Bonk me as many times as you want, but I just couldn't do it.

I'm not the only flavor-oriented person in my household. My kids love V-8 Fusion Acai Berry, too. Even my 2-year-old associates the flavor with the bottle's packaging. She'll point it out when it's time to refill her sippy cup.

I don't recommend using V-8 Fusion instead of fruits and vegetables; but it's a nice supplement. Most of us struggle to get our kids eating the right things regularly. V-8 Fusion helps.

The V-8 Fusion line comes in 46-oz containers and in smaller, lunchbox sized bottles for school lunches, snacks, or drinking a V-8 Fusion on the go.

Unfortunately, V-8 Fusion isn't a low-calorie drink. The good news...

grenmse says "The best fruit juice there is!" about Juicy Juice Punch

grenmse — Wed, 07 Oct 2009 19:18:17 GMT

I was first introduced to Juicy Juice a long time ago (as a kid back in the seventies when my dentist reccomended it) and I have loved it ever since. It has since been bought out by Nestle but it still remains about the same as I remember it. It still comes in a variety of flavors. My favorite flavor will always be Punch so here I am reviewing it!

Juicy Juice is one hundred percent juice with no high fructose corn syrup or added sugars. It is high in vitamin C and has no artificial preservatives or flavors. It is great for both kids and adults and is a lot better than most juice and "power drinks" out there. You can get it in containers ranging from 64 ounce bottles to small luch size juice boxes. It tastes terrific, just what you would expect a fruit juice to taste like, real fruit, and it is not watered down or too sweet.

One eight ounce serving is 120 calories but it is juice and when you consider an apple has around 80 calories and you are getting a full days supply of vitamin C...

laterallygator says "Healthier than other drinks, but this juice is a tad too sweet" about Juicy Juice apple juice

laterallygator — Tue, 06 Oct 2009 13:01:18 GMT

I love apple juice, and I love that Juicy Juice is made with 100% fruit juice, but unfortunately I have found that their apple juice is just a bit too sweet for my taste. Kids do love the sweetness and will gulp this stuff down, which is a plus for picky eaters who need their servings of fruit, but when it comes to healthy apple drinks that everyone can enjoy, I would stick with a locally-produced cider instead.

As a company, Juicy Juice does its part by supporting some public broadcasting children's shows, such as Arthur, which is a good insentive for parents like me to support them. When buying Juicy Juice products, I'll opt for the Harvest Surprise line, as it offers the added benefit of a vegetable serving (which also seems to cut on the sweetness of the concentrated juice as well).

AnnaBanana says "Lifting the bar where bottled juices are concerned!" about HERO/White Wave, LLC. Fruit 2 Day Juice

AnnaBanana — Tue, 06 Oct 2009 04:26:12 GMT

Today I returned from a foraging expedition to Dominick's carting a couple bags whose contents included a nice frosty Banana Strawberry Vivanno Smoothie from Starbucks. I parked my stuff safely inside the front door, put away a few of the refrigerated or frozen things, then eagerly lifted the Starbuck's Smoothie out ... and dropped it in the middle of my kitchen floor! The cup cracked down one side and the cap flew off. Now I know what my kitchen floor would look like if it was covered with sticky pink linoleum.

One temper tantrum, ten minutes of streaming invectives, and half a roll of paper towels later, the mess was a memory but there I was ... still craving something cold and refreshing to drink. It was time to switch to Plan B which was possible because I had also picked up a twin pack of Fruit 2 Day Juice, a beverage which is displayed in the Fresh Produce Department and comes in a variety of flavors. I chose Cherry Grape. When the Vivanno Smoothie thing didn't work...

MRSverret says "Peachy Keen" about Apple & Eve Peach Mango Juice

MRSverret — Sun, 04 Oct 2009 12:21:28 GMT

If you visit our home at any given time you will find at least one type of juice. We love the stuff. I'm always on the lookout for new juices because the same stuff gets old after a while. I picked up Apple & Eve Peach Mango juice and was immediately sold. I love peaches and I love mangoes!

I picked up a 48 oz bottle for around $4, which is a little pricey. Apple & Eve Peach Mango juice is a blend of five organic juices. Here are the ingredients:

Organic apple juice, organic peach puree, organic white grape concentrate, organic mango puree, organic carrot concentrate, ascorbic acid (vitamin C), natural flavor, citric adic, and beta carotene.

Nutrition Facts:

calories 130

sodium 25mg

carbohydrate 31g

sugars 30g

vitamin C 100%

This is one of many flavors that my family has enjoyed from Apple & Eve. It's organic, refreshing, and 100% juice. If you like juice, into trying new things, or just like peaches and mangoes try out Apple & Eve Organic Peach Mango juice.

TrinasCurlz says "I can't believe there are VEGETABLES in there!!!" about V8 Fusion

TrinasCurlz — Thu, 01 Oct 2009 17:08:10 GMT

I was so excited when I got to try these drinks that I purchased with a coupon at Walmart.

While I am not a big juice drinker, I had heard a lot about V-8 (not to mention getting the commercials catchy tunes stuck in my head... ;) and couldn't wait to experience VEGETABLES and fruit in the same drink. I told my big bottle to work for an afternoon "pick-me-up" and was shocked to discover that this drink was amazing! Juicy, not too thick but not too thin either, great taste, you get energy just tasting this awesome and rather surprising taste!

I savored every sip of my Berry drink and enjoyed the Strawberry-Bannana mix almost as well (I always tend to lean more to berry taste though).

The only draw back about these awesome drinks is that they are quite expensive and I am not too sure about the sugar content and the over-all healthy quality of these juices...

I love this drink. I would drink this every day instead of eating vegetables! It made me feel great about myself to be getting some...

pickie98 says "Purple sunshine!" about Welch's Welch's 100% grape juice

pickie98 — Wed, 30 Sep 2009 23:49:47 GMT

We drink only 100% juice, never any of those cocktail juices. I am diabetic and need to know each calorie and exchange that I consume, so this high-quality, trusted brand juice is perfect! I know that when I measure out any amount, I am not getting added sugars or artificial ingredients.

Grape juice is a well-known tool for diabetics whose blood sugar drops suddenly. It is as effective or more effective as orange juice, used in hospitals for just this purpose,,

This juice is so good, that we find ourselves hard-put to stop drinking it, it is so great tasting!!

You can even make grape jelly out of Welch's grape juice!! I have done it for the past 43 years!!

MRSverret says "Naked is Natural" about Naked Berry Blast

MRSverret — Sat, 26 Sep 2009 05:36:56 GMT

This was my first time tasting Naked Juice Smoothie Berry Blast. I picked a couple bottles up at the convenience store. There were several other flavors to choose like mango, green machine, watermelon chill and a couple other kinds.

First of all they are expensive. For one 15.2 oz bottle the price marked was 4.39. Fortunately for me they only rang up a little over three dollars. That's too expensive for only a little bit of juice but it was good. Just shake well and enjoy.

Naked Juice Smoothie Berry Blast is made from five different juices. In each bottle of this flavor they have five blackberries, four raspberries, four strawberries, three and a half apples and half a banana. That's the only ingredients, all natural and 100% juice. Their slogan is "a pound of juice in every bottle" (15.2 oz) The Berry Blast is from their well being line.

Here are some nutritional values:

serving size 8 oz (about half)

no fat, no sat. fat, no trans fat, no cholesterol, no calories from fat, no vitamin...

smartalex says "Gatorade G2 tastes great for being low-calorie" about Gatorade G2

smartalex — Thu, 24 Sep 2009 01:02:11 GMT

I am addicted to gatorade. Its all I would like to drink. However, I am not an athlete and do not burn enough calories so I could not drink it as often as I would have liked. Until now. G2 is a lighter variety of gatorade, with fewer calories. My favorite is orange, which tastes almost exactly like the real thing. I hate diet drinks that taste diet...the grape variety of G2 does however taste like artificial sweetener. If you look at the color of the g2 itself, its much lighter than tradtional gatorade, which leaves me wondering what kind of crazy chemicals they put in the real stuff. They are slowing adding more varieties of G2, but as far as I know they already have: orange, grape, fruit punch, lemon-lime, strawberry, and blue raspberry. G2 is a better replacement for those of us that consume too many calories already but hate drinking water. Its definetly better tasting than the gatorade sports water.

Anana17 says "Sounds better for you than it is." about Naked Green Machine

Anana17 — Mon, 14 Sep 2009 16:30:04 GMT

Naked Juice's Green Machine tastes pretty good despite the unusual color. Also, it has a slightly grainy texture that takes a little getting used to, but isn't enough to totally turn one off. The apples and bananas make the juice pleasantly sweet and balanced.

It is true that is has a lot of natural fruit juice, but my problem is that it has no fiber. If you were to eat the fruits that are listed to be in the drink, there would definitely be some fiber. Since the nutrition label doesn't list any fiber in the Green Machine, it looks to me like Naked Juice did something to remove the natural fiber from the fruit. The Green Machine packs a pretty good sugar punch (even though there is no artifical sugar added) without the other benefits of the fruit inside, like fiber and protein. I prefer the Blue Machine or Red Machine over the Green Machine because they both have a good serving of fiber with some protein to balance out the sugar of the fruit juice.

Green Machine tastes good,...

ApriBambino says "simply....delicious !" about Simply Orange

ApriBambino — Fri, 04 Sep 2009 00:38:44 GMT

Simply Orange

In my humble opinion I think this is one of the better "commercial" orange juice brands on the market. If you haven't noticed, all OJs have gone way up in price, even the yucky store brands that end up down the drain because nobody in my house likes them. I think this shines over Tropicana any day.

If you end up throwing food items away because they are disliked then why not buy what they like, that's my motto. So, that said, I bought the no pulp Simply Orange and my family loves it, in fact the container barely lasts a few days in my house.

This juice has a fresh orange taste, crisp and satisfying, it's not too bitter, tart or acidic and weather you like pulp in it or not, it's still has a nice smoothness to it. I've used this in cooking as well, it makes a great marinade (along with fresh ginger, garlic and soy sauce) for pork chops, it gives them a very zesty & tasty orangy glaze and the natural acidity of the OJ tenderizes the meat perfectly.

This is a staple juice...
