What Exactly Are Baby Carrots?
In the 90s, there was a revolution in the global farming industry, which began to produce vegetables and fruits, based on the aesthetic requirements of people.
To be clearer, it was believed that people preferred to buy vegetables and fruits that were easy on the eyes, with compact sizes and brighter colours.
For this reason, farmers started to grow hybrid products, using various chemicals to make them look more attractive and also to make them taste better.
So, baby carrots too are produced using toxic chemicals that stunt their growth, making them look like "cute" miniatures of the regular carrots.
