Beets

Oh! yeah, we all have that one dish, which we donot like, in my case it is capsicum. Well done on you winning placement.

Back with congratulations Caycay

I actually like beets - boiled, skinned and then pickled and chilled. It's the only way to eat 'em! Congrats on the win, CayCay. Well done.

Beets are certainly not one of my favourite's I must admit, congratulations on your contest win CayCay.

I'm with you there CayCay, certainly not on my eat list lol. Congratulations on your win. Enjoy your weekend. Tom

Awesome win. You did so well with the form

Congratulations on your win. I enjoyed reading about your "Beets" write. I love beets hot in a sweet n sour sauce or cold with onions or in a mixed salad. Have a wonderful day/weekend writing away..............

I didn't have you figured for one of the beet poets! Excellent win, very funny poem. Michael

- Beets are healthy, but I rarely eat them :) - Congratulations on your top win in the contest :) - Have a lovely weekend, CayCay :) - hugs

I think very few have written one on the dish one despises. You have done it and done beautifully and convincingly. Congratulations Cay Cay on your great win.

CayCay, congratulations on your first place win. Well done, I can tell you really hate beets!

I'm on the side of "not really". That said, I have had some wonderful authentic homemade borscht.

Well, I actually love 'em. Especially cooked and then not cut up. ~ Different Strokes

LOL

LOL I'm with Charles, though I also add grated carrot and use a dash of balsamic vinegar, love 'em! Great poem though GL in the contest

LOL- I hated beets. Then I made a beet salad with cold sliced beets, added some sliced red onion thin, added halved black olives, Extra virgin olive oil, red wine vinegar, oregano, salt & pepper...and now I love 'em! Best wishes in the contest!

I'm with you CayCay! Red beets are gross! That being said, I recently ordered a salad that had golden beets in it and I have to say they were quite yummy!!! I still dislike the red, slimy beets but golden beets are now a different story! They weren't slimy without that musty taste!!! Best wishes for the contest! Blessings!

They do have a different flavor. Try them cooked, then honey glazed.

I'm having fun just trying to pronounce Epulaeryu coo coo cachew. :) Beets are so good for you, made the Russian big & strong (Borsh) can't be beet! Interesting perspective on good eats or not & well said.

I have a limited taste for beets. I like them from the can and better cold, and not often. They were good with a certain food, my mom made, as n accompaniment. I see your beet distaste is deeply rooted ;)

I can relate to this, I’ve never really liked beets either and your description makes the dislike feel very real.

Excellent. You went with one you detested! Have you ever tried them with special sauce? That's the only way I can eat them. For me the grossest are asparagus, broccoli (unless in a creamy cheese soup), kale and artichokes, things like that. Oh and that nasty cauliflower!
