Baby carrots are not baby carrots - The Washington Post
"Admit it, you didn't know this about baby carrots." #nofoodwaste (I knew)

HealthyHarlequin 8yr Totally knew -
annefood 8yr Yup. @manfood and I were just discussing this. -
Udi 8yr I didn't know that it was born out of a desire to reduce "ugly carrot" waste though... "In the early 1980s, the carrot business was stagnant and wasteful. Growing seasons were long, and more than half of what farmers grew was ugly and unfit for grocery shelves. But in 1986, Yurosek, itching for a way to make use of all the misshapen carrots, tried something new. Instead of tossing them out, he carved them into something more palatable." -
DietID_TeamDietitians 8yr Yes! I love this story! Baby carrots are such a win win for everyone - easy snacking, reduced food waste, healthy snack! -
JenniferEmilson 8yr Yep, knew it 😁
Stopped for lunch at Brooklyn Cider House near New Paltz. Beautiful spot.
