The Heart Beet is a veggie that can be found in certain areas of The Dry Reef, and more commonly in The Indigo Quarry.

Slimepedia Entry

About:
Heart beets get their name from their deep, red color and heart-like shape. Heart beets are also unusually juicy for a beet, making it the only veggie that's not for the squeamish in the kitchen.

On the Ranch:
Deposit a heart beet into a garden's depositor and you'll have a large heart beet crop of your very own.

Tips

  • Heart Beets can be encountered very early on. A Heart Beet patch is located just outside of The Ranch gates over a ledge, on top of a small rocky plateau. You are supposed to have a jetpack to get to this, but it is not hard to get to without one.
  • The consistency of the Heart Beets' growth and harvest yield makes Rock Slimes a decent choice for converting harder-to-feed or more valuable Slimes into Largos.
  • Heart Beet crops in The Indigo Quarry may have Odd Onions in them.

Origin

The Heart Beet is a beetroot, while also visually appearing to resemble a radish, in the shape of a heart symbol, while the Slimepedia entry implies that it can be likened to an actual heart. The Slimepedia tagline - "If you listen to it closely, you can faintly hear a veggie." - may be a reference to seashell resonance, the popular folk myth that listening to a seashell allows one to hear the sound of the ocean, which in reality it is a combination of ambient noise in the environment and activity from within the body. Its name is a pun on the term "heartbeat".

Trivia

  • Despite being the Rock Slime's current favorite food, in the past, the Prickle Pear was planned as their favorite food. The reason the change was made is unknown.
    • The Prickle Pear is now the dervish's favorite food.
