Is V8 fruit juice really as healthy as the advertisements say it is?


You know those commercials that go "You still could have had a v8?"
I was wondering if it is healthier to just drink water? I’m asking this because v8 (fruit juice) has some vitamins and what not, and water doesn’t. Which one is healthier in the long run?

Well it depends what you’re looking for in your drink.

V8 is good because it gives you those extra vitamins, minerals, and fiber, but it contains extra calories, sugars, and preservatives as well.
Water is good because it hydrates without the calories, preservatives, etc., but it doesn’t contain any vitamins, fiber, etc.

In the long run the best thing to do is drink water, but still get your vitamins, minerals, and fiber from the actual fruits and vegetables. Eventhough V8 supplies this it could add an extra couple pounds from the calories and high-fructose corn syrup as well as leading to other bodily disfunctions. V8 though is better to have than other drink alternatives such as soda, coffee, and energy drinks. So just have everything in moderation. V8 won’t do much damgage, since it is a juice.

I do suggest Naked brand juice. Many of their juices contain no high-fructose corn sryup and even the ones that do have it contain very little. Most of their juices contain little to no water as well meaning that it is all fruits and vegetables.

Does lemon juice work to get rid of pimples?


I heard that putting lemon juice on pimples at night time (before bed) will almost completely get rid of them before the morning.
Is this true?
And if so how does it work/what do you do to and how much do you put on?

Lemongrass oil, Lavender oil and Tea tree oil are the best natural stuff for ur skin. Lavender oil can be applied neat to the area of skin affected but Lemongrass and Tea tree should be should be considered spot treatments or alternatively fill a basin with warmish water and add a few drops to it then take a clean facewasher and gently pat the skin with the dilution. Also Apple Cider vinegar is a great toner for acne proned skin as it has the same PH balance as your skin and kills bad bacteria but allows the good bacteria to flourish i would recomnend it b4 lemon juice :)

If I have a bottle of grape juice from 2004 that is sealed in a glass bottle, can I still drink it?


This bottle of grape juice has never been opened. It has been stored in a kitchen pantry for most of it’s time. All of the stickers, caps, and foil wrappings are still attached. Do you think it is safe to drink?
If it is safe to drink, do you think it’ll be of drinkable quality?

Check the expiration date that’s normally printed at the top of the bottle. If it says 2009 than it’s probably okay to drink.

What is the Jamba Juice Citrus Squeeze Smoothie Recipe?


Searching the internet provides the following recipe:

1 1/2 cups fresh orange juice*
2/3 cup frozen whole strawberries
1 banana — sliced
2 scoops vanilla nonfat frozen yogurt
1 cup ice

Combine all ingredients in a blender and blend on high speed until all the ice is crushed and the drink is smooth.

This recipe yields one 24-ounce drink.

However, this can’t be correct. The listed ingredients for the Citrus Squeeze Smoothie on the jamba juice site include pineapple juice and orange sherbert, which are obviously not included in the above recipe.

So does anyone know the actual recipe for the Citrus Squeeze? Any answers would be well appreciated. Thanks.

at the store they have a print out with the ingredients of each drink. due to the health department regulations it must reveal the ingredients. there is also a recipe book for their recipes.

How do i make garlic juice for my ratties?


Garlic is good for ratties sneezes but i think the juice might be easier to give to them. How can I make garlic juice?

Try blending a clove of garlic. Blend it until it turns into a liquid and if it does not turn into a liquid, just add some water. Put inside of a little dish and put the dish into the cage or tank. You could make a jar top or a lid out of the dish.

Old Fashion Lemon Meringue Pie and Never Fail Pie Dough Recipes


Don’t be intimated by just the thought of making pie dough.  It really can be easy.  And to prove that point, below you will find the recipe for Mrs. Olive’s Never Fail Pie Dough.  Mrs. Olive was an elderly lady in the community where I grew up.  She was known as a great pie baker and one of the reasons was her pie crusts.  She graciously shared this recipe many years ago.  Now to fill that pie dough, try this delicious old fashion recipe for Lemon Meringue Pie.  Perfect for an after dinner treat, to take to “pitch-in” meals, or just coffee and dessert with your girlfriends, you will love this pie.

MRS. OLIVE’S NEVER FAIL PIE DOUGH

This is a recipe from one of the elderly ladies in the community when I was a child.

4 cups all-purpose flour
2 cups shortening
2 tsps salt
1 tbsp sugar
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 cup water
1 tbsp white vinegar
1 egg

Mix together the flour, salt, sugar, and baking powder. Cut in the shortening. Add the water, vinegar and egg. Mix well and chill before rolling out.

Note: This dough can also be frozen for use later.

OLD FASHION LEMON MERINGUE PIE

This recipe was cut from an old box. I would imagine it was a cornstarch box.

1 cup sugar
3 tbsp cornstarch
1 1/2 cups cold water
3 egg yolks, slightly beaten
Grated rind of 1 lemon
1/4 cup lemon juice
1 tbsp margarine
1 baked 9-inch pastry shell
3 egg whites
1/3 cup sugar

In a 2-qt saucepan stir together the 1 cup sugar and cornstarch. Gradually stir in water until smooth. Stir in egg yolks. Stirring constantly, bring mixture to a boil over medium heat; boil one minute. Remove pan from the heat. Stir lemon rind, lemon juice and margarine into the mixture. Cool slightly. Pour mixture into the prepared pastry shell. In a small mixer bowl, with mixer at high speed, beat egg whites until foamy. Gradually beat in the 1/3 cup of sugar; beat until stiff peaks form. Spread meringue over filling starting with the edge and sealing meringue to crust. Continue filling in the center until all meringue is piled on the filling. Bake in a 350 degree oven for 15 to 20 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool before slicing.

Enjoy!
