Carrots are one of those staples that we take for granted. You probably always have some around, but don't use them often enough. Nutrition-packed, naturally sweet and delicious steamed or simmered, they're too terrific to pass up. Pre-peeled and perfectly sized for popping in your mouth, these tiny carrots are great for stowing in lunches and convenient for the hurried cook, too. If paying that price means you'll actually eat them, though, then it's worth it.
Raw carrots are perennially popular with kids.
Many who refuse other vegetables will gladly chomp on raw mini-carrots or their julienned giant cousins if they're available, so by all means, make them available. It's not destroyed by cooking, so those long-simmered carrots in your favorite soup still have plenty of the good stuff. Your body converts their carotene into Vitamin A, which it needs for proper vision. They'll keep for at least a month stored in an open bag in your vegetable drawer. Depends on you and the carrots.
