Is that dark red a beet? Or is it pickled? I’ve never had the guts to try one. LOL 🙋🏻

Just a regular beet. They are good, they have a sweet flavor that is accompanied by earthy tones. The hardest part of working with them is the color, it gets everywhere. But... This is a good thing because that color provides a lot of healthy antioxidants. They also have been studied for improvement in physical fitness performance.

The last time I was a dedicated trainer (20 + years ago) I noticed I could lift more on days I ate beets. Learned later they help the body control blood vessel dilation/ contraction. My experience was with pickled; some claim pickling reduces the benefits, but my body disagrees. Some taste better than others, though, and I eat the ones that I enjoy the most.
