Snacking on Carrots.....

MrStuffins

I always snack during the day, its a really bad habit. Especially when it's crisps i'm snacking on.

So i've decided to start snacking on carrots instead. Is there any adverse effects to eating carrots non stop? I know it seems a weird question but when you can drink too much water, maybe you can eat too much carrots :pac:

They can turn you orange or yellow and could be addictive.

I think it is the colourant used in "sunny d" and some kid turned orange/yellow

Also they are about 5% sugar if you are eating loads.

I wouldnt worry too much unless you are eating them like a horse.

And they really can turn you sort of orange, I got it years ago.

Try cherry tomatoes, sticks of cucumber and sliced red/green/yellow/oranage pepper could be useful too.
