Does A Bloody Mary Count As A Vegetable?

Strive for five fruits and vegetables a day!  You might be able to reach that goal in one night out of drinking!

According to the Daily Mail, a British nutritionist says that a Bloody Mary does in fact count as a vegetable.  Obviously, you are better off having the tomato juice without the booze in it...but you still get the benefits of eating a vegetable like the vitamins and whatnot.  (Daily Mail)

This might be a stretch, but doesn't sugar come from the earth?  Shouldn't that be considered a vegetable? :)
