Sugar beets are generally grown for processing vs actually eating although I understand they are edible. As you say they are sort of white and more like a turnip or raw potato texture.
The likely biggest trouble is they are quite late, something like 95 days compared to more like 55 days for garden beets.
You’d likely do better with a good garden Beet like red ace or Detroit dark red especially if not growing in the ground.
