Beetroot

Beetroots are crops planned to be added to Pocket Edition 0.8 Alpha. They appear similar to carrots and potatoes. They appear to function like wheat, they drop both a food item, and Beetroot seeds which can be then replanted on Farmland.

Appearance
When held in-hand, beetroots look similar to spider eyes, but more round and pink.

Usage
It is currently unknown whether beetroots themselves will be edible, but they can be crafted with a bowl to form Beetroot Soup and can be crafted into Rose Red dye, likely replacing the red mushroom recipe.

It is unknown how it will be obtained, however it is extremely likely they will be found in the Nether Reactor.
