Flashback: I'm in the grocery store with my parents. I'm of preschool age, maybe 4. I remember we were going down the baby food aisle and my parents got some jars for my brother, who would have been between 1 and 2. They weren't buying any beets! I remember sneaking some jars into the cart. My parents were totally shocked to see them as we were checking out. How did they get there? And why? I loved baby food beets and missed having them. I guess I didn't realize they'd notice.
Why did I have this memory? Probably because I have to limit the amount of beets I eat because they are sweet and now I am diabetic. I guess it triggered the memory because I realized that was probably why I'd loved them so much when I was little...they were sweet! Beets just doesn't seem the kind of food a kid would like otherwise, right?
