Re: The Great Beetroot Debate

I like it. I don't seem to get it in my food as often as other people on here seem to. Obviously more often than in the UK but still rare enough that I notice when it's there.

Me too! We had a fry up on Sunday for the first time in a couple of years and it was the one thing missing.

I have had it as a dessert a couple of times in the past which works surprisingly well.

I bought some from the butchers at Currambine. It wasn't the same as good old english stuff but it was OK.
