They may be listed as Mangel Worzels or Mangolds. They are part of the beet family and closely related to beetroot, sugar beet, fodder beet and chard. White beetroot are probably the nearest alternative if you cannot find mangolds.

Mangolds have higher water content than the other beets which means they bruise easily if mechanically harvested. They have largely disappeared from our farms for this reason.
