[{"role": "system", "content": "The beetroot is the taproot portion of the beet plant, usually known in North America as the beet, also table beet, garden beet, red beet, or golden beet. It is one of several of the cultivated varieties of \"Beta vulgaris\" grown for their edible taproots and their leaves (called beet greens). These varieties have been classified as \"B. vulgaris\" subsp. \"vulgaris\" Conditiva Group. Other than as a food, beets have use as a food colouring and as a medicinal plant. Many beet products are made from other \"Beta vulgaris\" varieties, particularly sugar beet. \"Beta\" is the ancient Latin name for beets, possibly of Celtic origin, becoming \"bete\" in Old English around 1400. From the Middle Ages, beetroot was used as a treatment for a variety of conditions, especially illnesses relating to digestion and the blood. Bartolomeo Platina recommended taking beetroot with garlic to nullify the effects of \"garlic-breath\". During the middle of the 19th century, wine often was coloured with beetroot juice. Below is a list of several commonly available cultivars of beets. Generally, 55 to 65 days are needed from germination to harvest of the root. All cultivars can be harvested earlier for use as greens. Unless otherwise noted, the root colours are shades of red and dark red with different degrees of zoning noticeable in slices.\n"}, {"role": "user", "content": "Hello I would love to know more about Beetroot"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "Its the taproot part of the beet"}, {"role": "user", "content": "is it considered a fruit? or a vegetable?"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "Veggie and its one of the cultivated varieties of the Beta Vulgaris grown for edible leaves and taproots"}, {"role": "user", "content": "How is it is cultivated ?"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "Grown like a crop other than food beets are used for food coloring as well"}, {"role": "user", "content": "When was beetroot discovered?"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "Its been used since the middle ages as a medical treatment for illnesses relating to digestion or blood"}, {"role": "user", "content": "Thanks for enlightening me about Beetroot"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "You are very welcome beets take 55-65 days to harvest"}]
