Help!!! What we call this in Mandarin? Hokkien? Cantonese?

I believe, because of our life style in the bz city, it is difficult for us to balance between the bz working life with the healthy life style...

It is difficult for me too.... A lot of time, I work late... surving net late night... and blog late too... It is not healthy at all...

But thing changed after my wife is pregnant. Now I know I must take a good care of myself and my health. Else how I am able to taken care both of them in the future.

Since then, we will go to the store near to the Batik Store, Pulau Tikus to get our favourite fruit juice there.

Yes... we get there from Sg. Dua just to get the fresh fruit juice....

Our favourite is Dragon fruit mixed with pineapple. But that day, no dragon fruit, wo we choose beetroot instead.

What is beetroot?? See below lor...




Beetroot in plant




But hor, what is the Mandarin name for beetroot? How about Hokkien, or Cantonese... Anyone know?

Tell me tell me tell me.... PLS....................
