Maybe it's in my head, but beet sugar doesn't taste as sweet to me as cane sugar.
The first time I saw sugar beets growing, I was on a small farm in the Danube valley in Austria. The farmer grew the beets to feed his dairy cows (and maybe his pigs, too). Seems to be a lot less difficult to grow sugar beets than sugar cane- at least when it comes to harvesting.
