Yeah I saw tomato juice for Ohio and just immediately assumed it was a lobbying campaign from the 60s, they only produce about 1% of California’s yield though.
My quick google searches say that Ohio made it tomato juice to coincide with a regional state fair that centered around tomatoes. Apparently Ohio was the largest producer of tomatoes in the US in 1965.
