I personally do not like beets or horseradish; however, my fiancé is Polish and LOVES this stuff, so the rating came from him :) It's extremely popular around his family at Easter. He was amazed at how good this turned out when I can't even taste it to adjust the seasonings. The only critique he had was to leave the ingredients grated. He said the S-blade made it too fine.
