Disregarding the moronic answer above, the mono-, di-, and trisaccharides are all called sugars, and there are many of them. The polysaccharides above the tri- level are referred to as starches, cellulose and glycogen.
So, the difference between beet sugar and cane sugar (or any other sugar, such as maple sugar, corn sugar, etc.) is the particular saccharide (sugar), or mixture of saccharides that occur in that particular plant.
They all have similarities in chemical structure, and they all have a sweet taste until you pass the tri- level at which point they become starchy, or indigestible.
