An Ancient food source, Beet Root evolved from the Wild Sea Beet being first domesticated in the Mediterranean Basin around 1000 BC. Originally cultivated for its tender leaves, the medicinal properties of the root were deemed more important than its eating qualities and was used to treat a range of ailments including fevers, constipation, wounds and various skin problems - with tales of lore depicting Beet(s) at that time to be worth its own weight in silver! A delicious edible with its sweet earthy taste, Beet Root is a delicious staple food that has been passed down over centuries.
