Celebrate Beets at Oisix's Spring Festival

Beginning on February 9, 2026, the renowned food subscription service Oisix and the workplace cafeteria Amehare Shokudo, operated by Shidax Contract Food Service, will kick off the Spring Beet Festival, showcasing the increasingly popular nutrient-dense vegetable - beets! This limited-time event will be held at Gate City Osaki, where patrons can enjoy various dishes enriched by the vibrant and flavorful beets.

The Rise in Popularity of Beets

Oisix has received overwhelmingly positive feedback regarding its beet offerings, which saw a remarkable increase in demand. Comparisons between the sales numbers for January to March in 2024 and 2025 showed a staggering 70% increase. Customers expressed their surprise and delight at the natural sweetness of beets, which made up a significant 71% of the positive feedback, while 68% appreciated the vivid pink color in their culinary presentations. In response to this growing interest, Oisix has expanded its meal kit offerings using beets to 23 different varieties.

The opening of the Spring Beet Festival will also see the introduction of a new 'Next Acai Bowl' featuring the innovative product, Sugar-Free Home Beet Bowl, which has gained immense popularity among women and families seeking nutritious breakfast and snack options.

Seasonal Delights: Homegrown Beets at Their Sweetest

The unique characteristic of beets lies in their subtle sweetness, derived from their relationship with sugar-making beets. This makes them incredibly versatile; they’re perfect in salads, borscht, smoothies, kinpira, and pickles. When grilled, certain high-quality varieties offer a melt-in-your-mouth experience. During the Spring Beet Festival, diners can enjoy a special Oisix Salad Bar Lunch that includes grilled beets and beet dressing – a vibrant addition to any meal.

A variety of other limited-edition dishes will also showcase beets, such as:

• - A comforting pink-colored soy milk stew enriched with root vegetables and beets.
• - A rich and creamy potato salad woven with beets and cream cheese, topped with a tart pickle accent.
• - A warm and nourishing oden featuring our seasonal beets.

Launching New Beet-Based Dishes

Starting February 12, Oisix will introduce seasonal beets from Hokkaido and continue to offer popular items like the Sugar-Free Home Beet Bowl, alongside various Kit Oisix menu items incorporating this vibrant vegetable.
