Beetroot is a vegetable that has been known for its nutritional value for centuries. Although beets are often red in colour, the vegetable is also available in other hues. The red colour comes from a substance called betanin. Dark red beets that you order from us have a striking pattern of pink and white rings.

In recent years, beets have become a superfood because they contain plenty of fibre, nutrients and antioxidants. It is a root vegetable with a slightly sweet, refreshing taste. The taste of yellow beets is even milder.
