I haven't tried beet root or beet root powder in the past, so I was not used to the taste on the first try. I wouldn't say it was tasty, but I soon accepted it because it was not overwhelming.

Most of them are in powder, but some get clumpy, and the clumpy part won't dissolve well in cold water. That doesn't bother me since I enjoy brewing them with hot water to warm up on a chilly autumn/winter morning. As shown in the pic, some sediment is at the bottom (I guess that is maybe fiber?).

I know that beet root has numerous health benefits, but I haven't experienced any yet. Having said that, I feel good mentally adding it to my diet, and I believe I will need to see the outcome in the long run.

I like that the only ingredient is organic beet root powder. The packaging with the seal strip keeps the powder fresh.

If you love the smell of beets, you will be excited when you open this bag and catch a whiff. It's a strong and fresh-smelling beet aroma. The powder is a deep, intense red color and is ground very fine. No egregious clumps.

I added about a half teaspoon to my fried egg, and it turned the egg batter a shocking red color. After cooking, however, it was only a faint pink color. If you wanted to use this as food coloring for non-cooked foods, it would work extremely well. Just not as much for cooked items. The good news is, that makes me feel more confident that this is natural and doesn't have dyes.

My egg had a very subtle taste of beets, but nothing too overpowering. I think you could slip this into a lot of meals without noticing. The bag has a suggested serving of 1 tablespoon, which is more than I'd want to eat in one sitting. A tablespoon provides a truly stunning 230% of your daily value of iron, which is impressive.

Because I live in Florida where humidity abounds, I sealed the bag tightly shut and then put it into another ziplock bag and sealed that bag shut, too. Not taking any chances with moisture! The current price of $1.12 per ounce is a good value overall.

Vibrant organic red color that can be easily mixed into homemade fresh pasta, sourdough bread, cakes, cupcakes.
I also like to add beets powder in soups, rice and smoothies.

I'm a fan of beet powder. I enjoy it in smoothies, added to red velvet cakes or healthier muffins, or added to vegetable soups or for an additional boost of flavor in borscht. I also make my own vegetable broth powder, and enjoy mixing a small amount of beet powder in with the other ingredients to make the flavor a bit more complex. I have future plans to add to savory dishes like shepherd's pie, or pasta sauces. I've read about the nitric oxide benefits that other reviewers have mentioned, and know that beets are definitely a "superfood". I tried the full Tbsp. per serving in a smoothie, and I would prefer about half as much for flavor. I'm just getting to know the products of Ganic Foods, but they are listed as USDA Organic and seem to be great so far.

Note: the calcium, iron, and potassium are inaccurate on the label, way too high. I have contacted the company and they are following up with the 3rd party lab that put together the labels and will fix the inaccuracies. I was impressed by how they got back to me immediately, and have already started following up. I will adjust my review to 5 stars when the issue is resolved.

Pro tip: For freshness, store this in your freezer. Powders, being small particulates, lose their freshness and vibrancy when they are exposed to air. Storing in the freezer can extend the shelf life, and can make the flavor fresher for a longer period of time.

I like this Organic Beet Root Powder by Ganic Food. I'm new to beet powder but I was excited to try this. I opened it and gave it a little sniff and noticed the beet/earthy smell that I've read about. I tasted a bit and it really just tasted like beets and a little sweetness to me. To start with this, I mixed about half a tablespoon in with some yogurt and it tasted fine. I am hoping that this will give me extra energy.

Beet Root powder is awesome stuff with many benefits. I love it for boosting nitric oxide to support vasodilation. This enables me to run faster and longer, thus maximizing my workouts. Ganic Food offers a whopping pound of the stuff, currently for about $18. That is a stellar deal. It tastes and smells as it should, like delicious beets. It readily mixes in water, but will settle on the bottom. This is actual powder, not juice extract, so it doesn't dissolve in solution. I like that it's 100% pure organic beet root with no adulteration. This is the best value I've seen for beet root.

This beet root powder tastes like nothing but beets when mixed in water. If you like beets, this is a great cost-effective way to get beet juice without the mess of dealing with cooked beets. Heck, even if you don't like beets, this powder is so versatile and you can hide the taste by putting it in pasta sauce, smoothies, or yogurt to enjoy its sweetness and beautiful rich color. The health benefits are endless because it's rich in antioxidants and a great source of iron.

The taste when mixed into water is earthy and slightly sweet, just like real beets. It doesn't taste like chemicals or artificial sweeteners, and there's no aftertaste. I added one table spoon to a full glass of water, and it dissolved well. If you add too much powder to water, you may not achieve the saturation you want and it can get gritty. A little powder goes a long way.

The taste when you mix it into anything else depends on how much you use, but the beet flavor is so mild that it can be easily masked by other dominant flavors and smells. Instead of adding a pinch of sugar to my pasta sauce, I add this powder, and it tastes delicious.

I plan on experimenting more with recipes because of its versatility. There are so many fun things you can do with this beet root powder, taking advantage of its natural sweetening properties and its gorgeous beet red color for things such as red velvet cake.
