Tube 'o Beet   (+5, -1)  [vote for, against]
Reconstituted beetroot in a tube that is the same diameter as a hamburger bun

ConsulF - This is for you.

Beetroot grows to a variety of sizes, though not nearly often enough the same size as a hamburger bun. This usually means you need to use multiple slices to completely cover a burger. In my observations, two slices of beet have very low friction and tend to fall out.

Take beets, smoosh them, add some kind of thickening agent to preserve the texture and then reform them in a tube that is the same size as a hamburger bun.

Perfect for a beetroot insurrection.

You guys are dedicated. I'm going to have to try this beet hamburger thing some day.

Why not grow the beet in burger-diameter plastic tubes, to produce the perfect burger-diameter beet? Oh yes - because it must taste disgusting, that's why not.

I'm new to this game, but isn't this a "flavour"? Good on you for advocating beetroot however.

As I always say, what's the difference between Meat and Beetroot?

Meaty, beety, big 'n bouncy.

I like Maxwell's idea - much better than mushing and reconstituting with additives.
