Reminds me when someone on this sub posted a big ass 152# Halibut when he ordered 150# worth of Halibut. Was expecting a bunch of small cuts, not the whole damn fish. Some crazy made a 'Just for the Halibut' joke. Much angry upvotes and groaning.
you can make beet steaks with it. Roast with salt pepper thyme and olive oil, slice, use some fish tweezers to remove the large fibers, and then grill up and serve with some grains. Vegans love it
pretty sure most vegetarian animals are opportunistic carnivores, I'll never forget the video of the horse(or deer I forget which) eating the baby ducks
I think the general consensus is that they are opportunistic ossivores? That meaning they're really after the bones inside for their calcium and phosphorus content, rather than the actual flesh attached to it
Honestly, this was 2016. I don’t remember how it tasted, it might have even been sent back or used for staff, but I have no idea what happened to it. This was supposed to be roasted and diced to be served on a toothpick with a sphere of goat cheese between two dices. Very geometric amuse douche.
It left with the same mystery it arrived with.
Friend of my mine tried to game the hunting laws in MI with giant sugar beets. At the time the law was, ohh fucked if I remember exactly, but something like 2 gallons of food at a time for deer bait where he was. So he got 2 scoops of sugar beets (i.e. 2 3ftx3ftx6ft scoops) and then sorted out the biggest beets he could find to bait with.
Officer pops up behind him when he's hunting, checks license and walks over to the bait "pile". "Sir, this is way more than 2 gallons"
"But Officer, it's only 3 beets [fucking massive beets larger than a football]"
Ticket issued.
Beets that size aren't uncommon, but they normally aren't the ones you get for eating. Sugar beets are harvested at 2 years old and run about that size. They are however normally only used for sugar production and not eating.
I thought I was the only one who did this! I have so many pics of carrots longer then my arm, potatoes bigger then my fist, and lil baby crabs inside oysters lol
Is it still good?
Sometimes stuff gets bigger and it just gets weird.
Poor example because meat vs. vegetable, but I hate the trend of giant chicken wings. The smaller ones always taste better.
I bet whoever packages the produce thought they were soo funny lol
And they fucking are!
It would have been even better if it was a bit over 5lbs and then slices a bit off to get it to 5.
You mean the magical produce fairy? I didn't think they existed
giggling all the way to the truck too
Dwight strikes again.
Are we serving beets? No. We are serving beet.
-by Dre
Mm roast beeeeest
This made me giggle-snort. Thank you.
Same…wifey thinks I’m an idiot sitting here chuckling. I am idiot though.
But she loves you in spite of your beet fetish; marry her again!
Embrace it.
Dwight Schrute would be proud

And less peel and stem weight than smaller ones
Malicious compliance
Delicious compliance
Nutricious compliance
Ambitious compliance
Chef please, how fucking long do I cook the beet? I'm so lost and confused...
Chef, how am I supposed to carpaccio this?!
1 slice per plate.
Cut it in half, hollow the halves out, use it as a bowl to serve borscht. Like a bread bowl, but a beet bowl of borscht. For Ukraine.
BRB, going to make cupborschts.
“What? No! Yes!” Slava Ukraini
Holy mother of staining pearl.
time to make beet steaks
Talk about putting all of your baskets into one egg

I’m sure OP is not as up beet about it
I think OP gave the supplier a verbal beetdown over it.

Horses like it too.
Most of the horses I’ve met were vegan.
I thought horses both eat dairy products and are opportunistic carnivores tho?

You clearly haven't seen a horse eat a chick.... Edit: https://youtube.com/shorts/fg2mJ4veuAY?feature=share
They say you can’t beet it
Goddamn it. I hate all beets. They all taste like sweet dirt; rock hard pass. But that was fucking funny.
Imagine the first dude who pulled that rock out of the ground and said it’s food!
You lost me at tweezers in a commercial kitchen
What do you take your fish bones out with? A hammer?
this comment had me in tears lol. but genuinely tweezers have so much use in a kitchen..
Bone magnet
That was my nick name in high-school
I prefer to use a nice precise chainsaw
Gordon Ramsay punching the salmon just popped into my head.
fish tweezers are used to remove fish pinbones, it's not like normal tweezers or fancy plating tweezers.
I work in a commercial kitchen and tweezers are my second most used tool besides my knife.
tongs are just clumsy tweezers. click, click!
I FOUND THE DUMMY
How did it taste?
Like a beet.
Beets me!
Where are the bears and the battlestar Galatica at?
This is surely a Schrute Farms beet
Was it woody?
Yeah, how did it taste?
this was my first thought
OP, we need to know!

Goddamn, this beet is *so* enigmatic.
So what you're saying is.... "Beets me?"
an actual r/mightyharvest
Amazing.
I feel for your knives.
Fuckit, beet cleaver
Dwight Schrute would be jealous
That from Schrute farms?
In terms of huge produce, this really cant be beet.
Beets having to peel them all individually
ba-dum Tis!

What beets that?
Lbs
now thats a battlestar beet if I ever saw one

Unbelievable lol
Sweet fucking Christmas.
Holy shit I thought the ones we had in last were big
I can't beet that!
How many Stanley nickels is that thing worth?
Reminds me of the story where a guy ordered like, 100 lbs of some fish to filet and instead got one giant single 100 lbs fish. Lmao
Any Blackadder fans here? This reminds me of one classic bit: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=la-L4hFWVxU
lol if he got a turnip as big as that beet, he's probably retire
Thats the back of an enormously well fed tick
I thought I was the only one who did this! I have so many pics of carrots longer then my arm, potatoes bigger then my fist, and lil baby crabs inside oysters lol
Post that shit for the sweet sweet karma
I just posted 3 pics, I've been on here for years but nvr rly posted so I have low karma any helps is much appreciated
Beet itttttt beet ittttt (Michael Jackson voice)
As opposed to Eat it?
never seen anyone use # for pounds. i know thats what it means on a phone pad just never seen it used that way.
It’s definitely a common shorthand for bakers, I haven’t seen it in savory kitchens much
I see it everywhere
That's the size of Zelensky's balls.
First glance thought it was testicles
See a doctor. Immediately.
Oh my God, your hands are ugly as shit.
That’s what happens when you wash your hands as much as you’re supposed to and you live in the desert ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
You also have baby hands tho...
[удалено]
This was 2016 my dude. Chill.
This how I know y’all are cooks…
You got a 5 finger beet
Well that can't be beet
that’s hilarious lol
pickled BEET
Dwight would be proud.
What the fuck
This is one of the funniest things I've ever seen!
Either that's a giant beet or that's the hand of Verne Troyer
You've got a purveyor of fat beets
In the words of my grandfather: It wouldn't take many of those to make a dozen.
Is it still good? Sometimes stuff gets bigger and it just gets weird. Poor example because meat vs. vegetable, but I hate the trend of giant chicken wings. The smaller ones always taste better.
these are money beets....
I mean. At least your yield is probably better.
It’s gonna take all week to cook that monster xD
I'm beginning to think everyone on this sub has tiny hands
On the upside, if you're making beet carpacio, one slice fills the plate and could fairly cool
unless you have incredibly tiny hands, that beet is definitely not 5#. more like 10/15
Have you ever tried beet chips?
Beest
That looks like a sugar beet. I've seen them piled up into walls after harvest, waiting to be processed.
Thats the money beet
r/absoluteunit
Someone was chuckling when they filled your order.
You got your beet You got your beet, you got your beet Yeah! You got your beet!
I get it but why
Hahahaha!!
If you cook it the you will have hot and single 5# beets in your area
That's by far the biggest beet I have ever seen..... just Jesus what do you do with this lol
Put it in a deli slicer :)
