The tyranny of beets

Posted by: Jeff @ 1:04 pm

Welcome back!

By the way, I will be taking the Uncrapify Your Life! message to A’Viands Foodservice in Minneapolis on Friday, March 12th. I am gunning for a free meal out of it.  More importantly, though, I’ll have the opportunity to ask them what, in their professional experience, everyone else’s favorite and least favorite foods are.

I have my money on beets as least favorite.  I don’t even think it is a food.  Just because something is ‘healthy’ or ‘nourishing’ doesn’t mean it is edible. And just because something is edible doesn’t mean it is palatable. I mean, wood chips are edible, but they are not food.

And just look at what happened to the U.S.S.R.  Remember the collapse of the Soviet empire?  Beets did that.

  1. Thanks for a great presentation, I was in the A’viands Group, I especially loved the differences between the guy being ready and the girl, I’m just about ready…. goes on all the time here. I don’t carry much of a purse, however I have everything shoved in my various assorted pockets… am constantly digging for things…. The least favourite food at my account: Vegetables in general, they are not big fans of Polenta either. Thanks again….
