Turnip pickles are usually tinted with beets making them a lovely rosy-pink color so your urine color may have pink color after eating this type of turnip. However, that urine color is not supposed to last for 2 days if the last time you ate was 2 days ago. If you stop eating this food and the pink color doesn't change or get lighter than the urine color change may not due to this food. Good luck.

Yes that can happen. Reduce / stop the beets and you will be OK
