Compare Cooked beets with another food

Per 100 g. Source: usda-fndds #2709874 — listed by USDA as “Beets, NS as to form, cooked”. Every number is traceable, every score recomputable. This entry came from a bulk USDA import and hasn’t been hand-reviewed yet — the numbers are USDA’s, but the name and grouping haven’t had a second pair of eyes. The score measures satiety per calorie. It is not a virtue scale, and no food here is forbidden. How the score works.
