if you're just coming in here to compare me to Candy licker..... EFF OFF!

How many folks here like carrots. I'm not talking about those boiled mush ones your mom used to make you eat... I'm talking about fresh carrots. My favorite are baby carrots dipped in Ranch dressing.

Yes, even when I'm drinking... Can't get enough of them!

Broccoli is good, too, but it gives me gas. You have been forewarned.
Ludicrous gibs!

    Sorry all, I'm bored as all hell tonight. Eating some Wise Peppercorn Ranch tortilla chips as well, now that all my carrots are gone.

    I hate carrots. Any kind. My taste has changed dramaticaly in the last few years. But still hate carrots. I tired them again Easter Sunday and just couldn't do it.




    Carry on.

    My sister won't eat them because she thinks they'll turn her orange. She's 28.

    Eating too many carrotts WILL turn you orange, but you'd have to eat a LOT.

    I love the baby carrots, great to bring into work for a mid-day snack.
    If you will it, dude, it is no dream.

    Wow...I did not know that. Learn something new everyday I guess.


    Carrots are the shiznit! I agree with you, baby carrots with some ranch sauce is an excellent snack.

    Ranch dressing sucks. Carrots are ok.

    I am a fan of the raw carrot. I used to eat the big ones all the time as a kid. Sometime with ranch, but usually just by themselves. Now I use them as a chip subsitute at lunch to try and eat a little healthier. I am also a fan of the raw sweet pepper.
    I know just enough to be dangerous, but don't tell my wife, she thinks I'm a genius. :D
