        I see someone’s never lived near salt water or snowy winters.

            I think the salt is implied with snowy winters. Very few places with ice roads don’t have some sort of rock salt or salt brine they put down.

                I think there’s a scaling issue. I wonder if there’s even enough beet juice to completely replace salt.
