"I love to dance ballet. It's especially fun to watch my frilly green top twirl when I whirl. And, I have no worries about seeing double when my turning ends because I am full of vitamin A, which promotes healthy eyes. Have you ever seen a rabbit wear glasses? I always say, "Eat a carrot a day and keep the eye doctor away!"
Carrots' sweet, crunchy goodness has been loved for many years, making carrots an important part of the diet for centuries. The ancient Greeks used carrots to cure tummy aches. When carrots were first grown in Central Asia, the most common varieties were green and purple. Today, you can find maroon carrots in Texas. In any color, carrots are always great as a snack or cooked with other veggies." |
