Many people do.

Even though they shouldn't.

But it's so delicious. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Why are you eating beets out of curiousity? As in, what properties of a beet are you looking for?

I'm sure you could find other veggies with similar vitamins and health content.

here downunder, our canned beetroot is totaaally different to yours. I nearly gagged when I tried canned beets in texas. Just about everyone in australia takes a big slice of canned beetroot on their burgers, along with a tonne of caramelized onions, but it's sweet beet and not your vulgar probably hfcs infused crap, so I don't know if I can really help you!
god, I'm going to miss our beetroot.

There are some that are similar but it's best to eat from a diverse pool of foods .

Beets are nutritionally awesome. Beets are an excellent source of folate. Beets are good sources of potassium and vitamin C. Low in calories and fat free.

They are a nutritionally dense food. I struggle with low iron so I need more vegetables that contain vitamin C to eat with other iron rich foods to help with iron absorption.

I am also trying to teach some small children how to eat from a diverse selection of foods and that there are more vegetables in the world than green beans.

So because i know that...I really want to like beets. I also want to like eggplant. i have a hard time there also. :P

Beets will never be good.

Feed them this instead.

As for eggplant, my wife uses it in cheeseless lasagna (she's lactose-intolerant) and it's tasty but I'm not a big fan of it generally.

you realise that the nutrition contained within actual food is far superior to artificial supplementation right?

Both these can be really good if you ruin the nutrional part of it. Tender cooked beets with butter go over well in my house. And my mom dipped eggplant slices in a saltine cracker & egg breading, then fried them on a skillet. We sprinkled white sugar on them after they were cooked.

For eggplant, try making Baba-ghanoush! It's wonderfullllll!!!
