    I usually like beets, but this just didn't do it for me. It was kind of mushy and tasted like, well, mushy beets. I might try it again in summertime, but probably not. - 3/25/09

    Nice and crunchy. Unexpectedly sweet - I think I tasted apple and ginger more than beet. I look forward to finishing the remaining portions this week. - 6/12/08
