Beetroot Crisps

Can they turn your wee a reddish colour? I have had 2 packets in less than 24hrs.

dont know about your wee but your wee jobbie will be reddish.

[ummmm]

Beetroot can, yes.

[woofgang]

you have probably eaten the dried equivalent of about six beetroots so yes you will pee pink.

Not sure about beetroot crisps but I definitely know beetroot can.

[masma]

Yes they can but they're worth it!

[Smowball]

I love beetroot crisps.

Did they taste of beetroot ? Given that is a horrible taste I'm curious about the crisps. Bet they cost much more than potato ones though.

Would these be easy to make? I've heard of making your own parsnip crisps before, but beetroot crisps are a new one for me.

I like them. Can't say I've ever noticed any adverse results - but then I've never eaten a whole packet, never mind two!

I love beetroot crisps. I've made parsnip crisps, but I'm not sure I would try with beetroot because of the juice getting everywhere.

I've not had the wee thing with the crisps, but I have with fresh beetroot. Someone told me that it's indicative of iron deficiency, but I haven't checked that out

Beetroot is good for the thyroid i have heard.

Looks like there's even a proper name for beetroot wee. I've learnt something new today!
