do you like CARROTS?

I love carrots. The noble carrot has long been known as an orange vegetable. Generations of people in the West have grown up believing that carrots are always orange. But as long ago as 2000 BC temple drawings from Egypt show a plant believed to be a purple carrot. It is also identified in the garden of the Egyptian King Merodach-Baladan in the eighth century BC. In Roman times carrots were purple or white. By the 10th century purple carrots were grown in Afghanistan, Pakistan and northern Iran. Purple, white and yellow carrots were imported to southern Europe in the 14th century. Black, red and green carrots were also grown. Orange roots, containing the pigment carotene, were not noted until the 16th century in Holland. This only came about thanks to patriotic Dutch growers who bred the vegetable to grow in the colours of the House of Orange. Experts believe Dutch breeders used a yellow mutant seed from North Africa to develop the orange variety and then stuck to it through breeding. Their colour comes from beta carotene with some alpha carotene, a pigment the body converts to Vitamin A, which is essential for healthy skin and vision in dim light. Dutch breeders recently studied the health qualities of purple carrots and believe they give us extra protection against various forms of cancer and heart disease. They contain purple pigments called anthocyanins, and act as anti-oxidants that protect the body. Carrots are the second most popular vegetable after the potato. Just a few carroty facts for you.

yup I do like carrots. I prefere them raw. Or just slightly cooked. Really soft overcooked carrots are not any good at all. I like the small bags of baby carrots that you can buy at the gas stations. Nice healthy snack alternative.

I love carrots boiled or steamed with loads of butter melted on them. mmmmm. They are one of very few vegetables that i eat.

to tell you the truth, i don't like carrots very much but i know carrots are nutritious so i often eat them. some friends say they eat carrots raw, but according to nutritionists, you'd better have them well cooked.
