What kind of vegetable is pictured here with the pink and white concentric rings? They look like they might be some kind of beet or radish.

That is a chioggia beet, I believe, but watermelon radish is also colored similarly.

5The yellow and dark red slices are also different kinds of beets. Seems like a beet mix to me. :P– Gretel_fJul 22, 2019 at 11:25

1Also known as candy cane beets (because of appearance- does not taste like a peppermint stick!)– DamilaJul 23, 2019 at 16:41

@Alex Reinking - difficult to say, there are multiple yellow and red varieties. Check the Wikipedia article on beetroots for a rough list. The dark red one is the most common, though. Also i believe there are white ones, so the larger white slices could those. Side note: It's a bit sad to say, but those lovely rings will mostly disappear when cooking them. :( The dark red color is preserved, though.– Gretel_fJul 23, 2019 at 20:17
