Carrots
Bugs Bunny’s favourite food, the sweet, crunchy carrot, is well loved by adults and children alike.
Served raw or cooked, carrots are a treat that can be enjoyed all year round. And don’t forget carrots’
legendary health benefits – your mom was right when she told you to eat your carrots so that you could
see better in the dark! Carrots are an excellent source of Vitamin A, which is necessary for healthy
eyesight, skin, growth, and also aids our bodies in resisting infection.
Seasonal Availability
Carrots are available year round but are most tender in winter and spring, when they are also sweeter.
Serving Size
½ cup of raw/cooked/frozen carrots or 200ml of carrot juice provides 1 serve of vegetables.
