Swede here. Before we imported potatoes in the late 1700s all we had were beets. Just beets. Beets everywhere.
What did you expect.
Pickled beets are awesome though
I supposed I expected swedes.
that's not fair, we had parsnips too, which are honestly pretty alright. It's like fibrous less sweet carrots.
And alcohol. And trees, darkness, cold, mud, did I mention darkness?
Bears and battlestar Galactica as well?
At least Sweden has decent fikabröd. The rest of the world has only almond croissants, brownies or dire travesties of kanelbullar to accompany its coffee
