(Low sodium V8 a healthier choice)

What is Clamato juice actually made of?

“The label on a bottle of Clamato Original typically lists the following ingredients, in order of quantity:

Water
Tomato Concentrate
High Fructose Corn Syrup
Monosodium Glutamate (MSG)
Salt
Citric Acid
Spices
Onion and Garlic Powder
Ascorbic Acid (to maintain color)
Dried Clam Broth
Vinegar
Natural Flavors
Red 40 (artificial color)
The presence of High Fructose Corn Syrup, MSG, and artificial coloring (Red 40) confirms its status as a highly processed beverage. MSG is a flavor enhancer that gives Clamato its savory, umami kick but can be a concern for individuals sensitive to it”
