(WXYZ) — We all know salt can help clear Michigan roads of snow and ice, but now state lawmakers want to see if beet juice can get the job done too.
There is currently a bill to help fund a Michigan Department of Transportation study looking into the benefits of beet juice.
“In Michigan, we are one of the top states that produce sugar beets," said Senator Roger Victory of Michigan's 30th district.
These sugar beets are combined with salt, the sticky beet juice acting as an adhesive to help the salt stay on the roads instead of blowing away.
