small stone in red beet juice

So when I decided to check out beet juice under the microscope, I realized there was something else along with the color .  .  .  something that seemed to be a stone.

I am not entirely sure what the rocks are but my best guess is that it is similar to beet sugar that comes from sugar beets. In sugar beets, sugar is formed from photosynthesis and is then stored in the roots.

Beets are the taproot portion of the plant which is why I think there is a possibility these "stones" are actually the sugars of the beet since they are located in similar locations as the sugars in the sugar beets!
