Vegetable Juice Concentrate Blend

A vegetable juice concentrate blend is made by removing water from a mixture of vegetable juices. This process intensifies the flavor and color of the vegetables, making it easier to transport and store. The blend can contain juices from various vegetables like carrots, celery, tomatoes, and beets.

Manufacturers use vegetable juice concentrate blends to add natural color, flavor, and nutrients to foods. They are often found in soups, sauces, beverages, and savory snacks. The concentrated form allows for a potent vegetable taste and visual appeal with a smaller amount of product.

Vegetable juice concentrate blends are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as intended. They are a source of vitamins and minerals naturally present in the vegetables. Regulatory bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated various vegetable juice concentrates, but specific evaluations for a 'blend' are not always detailed. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects at typical dietary intakes.
