You might find this interesting:
In the 70's we were very into Organic Garden and raised a very large garden.
We raised bushel of "Detroit Dark Red" Beets and our family was canning them either as just canned or as sweet/sour. We would put the beets into a scalding water bath and then slip the skins and cut them into small pieces.
Our son thought they were delicious after we cut them up and stuffed himself. He was pretty liittle at the time and had to go to the bathroom. I went to wipe him as he had not accomplished that as yet and was astonished and dismayed to find the water in the stool red as if he had bled badly. I was close to panic when I realized the beets had caused the redness in the stool.
Back then I don't suppose you could find many families who ate any more nutricious food than our family did.
