There are indeed 8oz cans of beets (small beets), there are 8 oz cans of
most canned veggies... but it would be wiser to buy one 15 1/2 oz can, costs
less (usta be 16 ozs)

Yes, sounds disgusting, but who knows. I have canned beets and I have
cheese so next time I open a can of beets I will try a sample... but I think
using whole beets is a lot of extra work and wasteful, what happens to the
portion hollowed out? I'll try a schmear of cheeae on a couple sliced beets
but I really don't expect I'll like the combo.... maybe down under style,
cheese on a burger with beetroot...
