With restaurants such as The Crossing and Big Sky Café actually making quite a name for the often neglected beet, it followed that more and more would start showing up at retail everywhere from supermarkets to produce stands. The past spring and early summer at the new Clayton Farmers' Market featured remarkably elegant specimens of the Chioggia, or "candy cane," beet, which, as its name implies, sports red-and-white stripes on the inside.
