Carrots are cool because they're orange, and crunchy, and cylindrical. Plus, they're full of Vitamin A and you can plug up holes in your furniture with them. And they fight cancer. And they come cut up into cute little baby carrots in little plastic packages that are healthy, yummy snacks. Here are some happy, playful carrots:

Discuss all affairs involving carrots in this thread.

Carrots are nutritional heroes, they store a goldmine of nutrients. No other vegetable or fruit contains as much carotene as The carrot health mancarrots, which the body converts to vitamin A. This is a truly versatile vegetable and an excellent source of vitamins B and C as well as calcium pectate, an extraordinary pectin fibre that has been found to have cholesterol-lowering properties.
The carrot is an herbaceous plant containing about 87% water, rich in mineral salts and vitamins (B,C,D,E).
Raw carrots are an excellent source of vitamin A and potassium; they contain vitamin C, vitamin B6, thiamine, folic acid, and magnesium.
Cooked carrots are an excellent source of vitamin A, a good source of potassium, and contain vitamin B6, copper, folic acid, and magnesium. The high level of beta-carotene is very important and gives carrots their distinctive orange colour.

Carrots also contain, in smaller amounts, essential oils, carbohydrates and nitrogenous composites. They are well-known for their sweetening, antianaemic, healing, diuretic, remineralizing and sedative properties.
In order to assimilate the greatest quantity of the nutrients present in carrots, it is important to chew them well - they are the exception to the rule - they are more nutritious cooked than raw.

Yes, we're indoctrinating good Christian boys  through carrots in their school lunches to be sinful homosexuals. The analogy is obvious.

I like carrot sticks, personally. They're healthy and also refreshing. And they make great food for tasting dips.

I'd jump up and down and hope you'd toss me a carrot

Cart off and sell my vegetables

My favorite vegetable

Being mentioned in a Beach Boys song adds to the cool factor of carrots.
