FW: Those little Baby Carrots in bags are good, right?

[Guest guest]

Thanks for sending the clarification on baby carrots! I always wondered why

they tasted disgusting. Carrots are one veggie I've always insisted be

organic - even before I knew what eating healthy was always about. Just

within the past month I started having a taste issue with rainbow's organic

carrots, and now I wonder if they use a similar treatment method. At

present the only organic carrots I've found not to have that disgusting

taste has been at whole foods. I seem to be the only one in my family who

can even taste it. It would be nice to have other carrot options other than

at whole foods...

Those little baby carrots in bags are actually big carrots cut up and

shaved down to look like baby carrots. I have an irrational and intense

hatred towards them. They've tasted like junk most every time I've tried

them. I have seen some premium brand that are actually baby carrots

mutilated and bagged too, but they are only fractionally better IMO.

I have a lesser degree of hatred towards bagged lettuce, but I don't

subscribe to that either.

I wholeheartedly agree with this. Ever since eating carrots with nice, fresh

tops, I will never go back to the other ones, especially the bagged ones.
