If you eat beets eat the tops too.
I didn’t like regular beats so started out eating pickled beets then migrated to the regular ones.
As @imallears says (more or less) you need to be more adventurous, wishing your constraints, of course. Can you eat candy?

All vegetables have some amount of natural sugars. I always eat the greens on beets and some other vegetables. Sautéed in EVO and some s and p…maybe with some diced onions …I’ve even put nuts and golden raisins in mine if too bitter…is very healthy. It’s a shame to throw them out.
Happy Healthy New Year and happy new adventures in food and exercise. No holds barred.

Yes, I think my 2023 meal plan will include beets! And the tops.
Can I eat candy? Yes. Chocolate is pretty much a no-no or very little, given my renal diet. due to phosphorous content. And to your horror, I am not a big fan of chocolate anyway! My favorite candy is Good-N-Plenty, but licorice is not recommended for a renal diet, so I treat myself only once in a while to it.
Here is what DaVita says about candy for CKD patients. You know we just gotta have something sweet once in a while! https://www.davita.com/diet-nutrition/articles/advice/kidney-friendly-candy-for-dialysis-patients
