Hello, my name is coggles and I love beetroot. I eat it most days of the week and quite often have gherkins on the same plate. It make your salad cream go a pretty pink colour too. My husband calls it 'devils food'.
Hot beetroot with no dressing on white bread thick with butter. Heaven!!! My grandad used to boil beetroot in the back yard behind his greengrocer's shop and the smell has always made my mouth water. My husband and son feel physically sick at the sight of it!
Beetroot lovers: try roasting it - its gorgeous
