Beets

Richer than spinach in iron and other minerals. The greens are helpful in cases of anemia, tuberculosis, constipation, poor appetite, obesity, tumors, gout, pimples and helpful in the elimination of irritating drug poisons. Beets are one of the best foods to relieve constipation and they are also good for obesity. Mmmm!!

I agree with Mary on this one.

I'm glad we touched all the bases here. Carol feels about beets the way I feel/felt about squash. The difference is that, because she's the cook, she chooses the vegetables, and over the years my squash objections have been worn down.
