Early dyes were made of plant matter. One example is Indigo, now commonly used for blue jeans. Now it is a man-made chemical. But it was very popularly grown in India and Japan and was known in ancient civilizations around the world.

Basically, when the microfibers of a material are dyed a different colour, something will stain. It can happen intentionally, like permanent marker, or unintentionally like... a food stain, or grass stain. Microfibers act as magnets to dyes, which is why, they are so hard to get rid of.

How do you get out beet stains from clothing?

To remove beet stains from clothing, start by rinsing the stained area with cold water to flush out as much of the beet juice as possible. Then, apply a mixture of liquid laundry detergent and white vinegar directly to the stain, letting it sit for about 15 minutes. Afterward, wash the garment in cold water, and check if the stain is gone before drying, as heat can set the stain. If needed, repeat the process or use a stain remover specifically designed for tough stains.

Do you carry beet juice?

Not usually, but on cloudy days I always bring a fresh beet with me in case I feel the need for some fresh beet juice. One time I accidentally forgot my beet juicer and I nearly had a melt down. I have found beet juice is best carried in plastics containing carcinogens, as it often reacts with the container and produces what I fondly call beet soda. Beets have many health benefits, not the least of which is their nutrient density which makes them a good vitamin supplement.
