    Practise makes us a little better, it doesn't make us perfect.


    What would Vedder do?

    LOL!!! My OH had the same problem after I made beetroot curry from on here; he honestly thought he was dying until a couple of days later when he sheepishly asked me never to make it again.

      I have some justification - my Nan died of bowel cancer.

      I however, nearly died of a heart attack!

        If he'd have just mentioned it at the time; I'd have told him he was ok....but he kept it quiet and I thought he was really not well. Bless him.

        ETA: shall I send you some chioggia? the white and red stripey one - you don't get the same 'I'M DYING OMG' panic attacks with it. And it tastes lovely. Esp roasted.

          You can send me to Chioggia (first thing that came up when Googled), I then of course added the word "beetroot" and all became clear as to what you meant.

          Looks very cool, like a Willy Wonka beetroot.

              Thanks goodness you didn't have asparagus with your beetroot as well. That really would have finished you off. LOL.

              I worry the other way - I eat tones of it and never had that side effect so worry where all the reds going. Maybe I'll wake up looking a like a long oompalooma (sp?) one day!

                  I did that back when I was a student. Summer term, had a salad and used the last of some sliced beetroot from a jar. Being a poor student and loving beetroot I used some bread to soak up the juice left in the jar.

                  The doctor was very good, when I told him my symptoms the first thing he said was "Have you been eating Beetroot?" when I answered yes he kindly said they'd send a sample away for tests just to make sure

                  On a tenuously related note, a few years later, after a very boozy weekend in Dublin, I discovered that Guinness turns your No2's black.
