[I Are Baboon]

You people are all sickos.

[McGRP01]

Pickled beets! Mmmmm!!! :thumb: Hot and soaked in butter w/ salt and pepper or cold! Either way they're yummy!! :drool:

[Toshi]

you all should read "jitterbug perfume" by tom robbins :thumb: . beets play a central role.

[Snacks]

I'm with Laura on this one..... :heart: beets! They are great in salads too :thumb:

The only good beets are sugar beets after they've been converted into sugar.

One of the few things I don't like.

Of course, I avoid them, so maybe I'd like them if I tried them prepared properly.

[Heidi]

I love beets - remember picking them out of the garden when I was little. YUMMY!

Beets are VERY popular if you go out to eat in New Zealand, I love that country :)

[I Are Baboon]

...so maybe I'd like them if I tried them prepared properly.

No, no you would not.

[Heidi]

No, no you would not.

You poor, poor man. Anything that color has to be exciting and delicious. :)

[MudGrrl]

now I just add beets to salad...beautiful color, great texture, wonderful taste

man I read that book on a rec from some chick that said his writing was similar to Hunter S. T. But man, that book was hard to follow. Are his other books that "scatterbrained"? (not meant negatively)

Somehow I fell victim to Jedi-Wife mind tricks. We planted beets in our garden and they are growing nicely...

WTF???

[steve45]

are beets, the same thing as we over here call beetroot?
if so then pickled beetroot is great, tastes realy nice, goes well with suprisingly a lot of stuff especially salads.

[stinkyboy]

The only good beets are sugar beets after they've been converted into sugar.

And then converted to booze? Then I'd try 'em.

Any veggie that starts with a "B" is gross.

However you meant it, "scatterbrained" is not a term that comes to mind when I think about Robbins' books.

I hated beets growing up, but after reading the book, I gave them a try again. Unfortunately, they still tasted terrible to me.

No, no you would not.
I do not like green eggs & ham, I do not like them Sam I am,

I think he jumps around a lot. At least in jitterbug, there were 4 or 5 seemingly unrelated stories, and he kept hopping back and forth. I guess I didnt get the theme. There were satyrs, perfumers, people of all different times/races. Maybe I will have to reread.

i can see how robbins' books might be called scatterbrained. yes, his other works have similar multiple-plot-line and general wackiness aspects to them, but they're all entertaining. if you didn't like one you probably won't like the others, on the other hand.

[peter6061]

Nasty,..... Best word to describe Beets.

[I Are Baboon]

Newsflash: Beets still suck.

[Westy]

Every year around Christmas time I get invited to a friends house for traditional Polish food, the first course is some horrible soup made from beets. I have to be drunk to eat the stuff.

[I Are Baboon]

:stupid:

[Tenchiro]

I have to concur.

[Westy]

:stupid:

I too am in agreeance.

[jdschall]

Down with beets!

[Qman]

red beets=bad
golden beets=good

Roasted and sliced, tossed into a salad or just sliced with cheese and a roasted red pepper dipping sauce and a glass/bottle of Pinot Gris.
Golden beet ravioli is pretty good too.

[-BB-]

The only good beets are sugar beets after they've been converted into sugar.
... and then that sugar is ued to make Belgain Beer!!
:drool:


Otherwise :blah:

[Heidi]

I still love beets. They are so dang expensive to buy fresh though :(

[BikeGeek]

My aunt-in-law :think: grows them in her garden and gives me a pile of them every year. :drool:

[johnbryanpeters]

Beets are wonderful. Boiled, a little butter, yum! :drool:

[I Are Baboon]

So it looks like beet haters outweight beet lovers here. :thumb:

I couldn't count Qman because he can't decide whether or not he likes them, or Toshi, who instead of telling us if he likes beets, made a reference to some obscure book none of us has ever heard of.

Damn, I should have made this a poll.

[OGRipper]

red beets=bad
golden beets=good

Don't be a beet racist.:p

Edit: I like beets. I even like borscht, as long as it's the real deal.

beets suxorz!11111!!!11

[bluebug32]

I enjoy pickled beets. I buy raw ones for my turtle who devours them, turning her face and the walls of her tank bright purple in the process.
