silverbeet contains a certain amount of oxalic acid in the leaves,
although not as much as rhubarb.

That's the one.

I thought that the acid involved with gout was Uric acid not oxalic
acid? Does oxalic acid change into uric acid within the body?

And silverbeet is not related to rhubarb. Silverbeet is related to
the beet family as is spinach.
