Hey, well, there are worse things to be called than a carrot. They're good for your eyesight, have plenty of vitamins that improve the libido, look really cool in salads and chinese food, enrich the soil in which they are planted, don't lend themselves to being eaten by bugs or worms, and give plenty of bored women something to smile about in the evening if they get dumped by a date. A carrot therefore is quite a noble vegetable...and it spends most of its life underground instead out in plain sight getting all the glamour that tomatoes, peppers, and eggplants do--all a sacrifice for the benefit of the gardener and consumer. Respect the carrot, my friend.
