I know what you mean, the Aussie burger with a beetroot slice and a fried egg. I always liked pickled beets. My mom called them ‘brain food’ and I think they’re good in a kinda pickle sense, if you’re eating a bunch of southern food or a salad. I lived in North Dakota and up there people cook them like potatoes… not really that bad other than how they turn your pee fuschia, which seems weird for a while.
