Pickled Beet eggs: just started breaking into jar today after two weeks waiting waiting waiting. The problem is you can't stop eating them. I use to worry about eating too many pickled beet eggs because of all the hype about high Cholestorol although as any nurse or Doctor on here will probably tell you that "no worries, most people eat pickled eggs with alot of salt. salt raises your blood pressure to astronomical figures and therefore will push all that nasty Cholesterol right through your restricted veins. mmmmmmm
