Culinarily you want a pure cane vs a beet. Beet sugar is generally anything not labeled ""pure cane"". The difference in cooking is generally bad presentation and a bit of a earthy flavor(dirt). ANy thoughts or experience? Interested if the flavor profile is going to change for the worse."

I was raised on beet sugar & I dispute that it is less acceptable, in cooking, than pure cane. I think you've fallen for advertising. I now use pure cane only because I buy sugar in bulk at Costco & they only sell Imperial.

I now use pure cane only because I buy sugar in bulk at Costco & they only sell Imperial. I can taste the difference in my coffee. Some people just have a better palette than others.... No offense. It's also more gooey and seeps and if you do a lot of sugar sauces or sweet rubs you want pure cane. They are both sweet, one is just sort of dingy in flavor and cane carmelizes better. Not that I did a lot of cooking when I was younger or anything."
