Its simply amazing -- before I got my TM I'd only ever tasted sliced beetroot out of the can, as an accompaniment to a salad and bbq! This would be another taste sensation. :)

Yes JD - really moist and soft. Luscious.  There is a savoury version that you can have with game, lamb or duck too to follow.
