I love beets. Why do people keep saying they taste like dirt?

Because that's how it tasted to me. But I've only had it once, never dare to try it again. I might try it again if someone else cook it. I'd not want to waste my money buying beets then not liking it again, just sayin'.

I used to grow them, I'd pickle them with clove, cinnamon stick and vinegar/ honey. They were so good! I really need to grow some again....

Pickled beets...

There's a restaurant in Chincoteague, Va. (Etta's Channelside) that serves pickled beets. They've been on the menu for the 45 + years we have been going there.

Beets are my favorite any kind of pickle.

Dishes prepared from our garden with the exception of the apples and the booze.. Haha
Egg plant was a hit this year! A recent favorite.
Apples are a favorite as well but it gets too hot here in fl. I bought a hybrid apple tree from TSC last year and it said on the tag "hot climates"... it lasted till June and bbq-ed in our heat.
Watermelon grows like a weed. One of my favorite weeds.
Bean Beans! The magical fruit! Can I have more than one favorite?
Good thread btw!!!
