During the second world war the British Ministry of Food encouraged so much extra production of carrots that by 1942 there was a 100,000 ton surplus. The Ministry's "War Cookery Leaflet 4″ included recipes for carrot pudding, carrot cake, carrot marmalade and carrot flan. There were madder ideas from non-official sources. Britain is famous for eccentricity.
Carrots contain high levels of vitamin A and contribute to the health of your eyes.

Keep your wits about you if you are dicing carrots. There are no prizes for speed, or if there are, there shouldn't be.
