Baby Carrots

Who loves those little mini carrots? We do! According to a USA Today report, baby carrots alone have boosted carrot sales over the last 40 years by almost 100%. And that’s no small feat, even for these miniature-sized veggies. If you haven’t developed a love for baby carrots yet, it’s about time you experienced the juicy, sweet crunch for yourself.

At only 35 calories per half cup of carrots and more than 300% of the RDA for vitamin A (as beta-carotene), these fiber-rich veggies are also a great diet tool.
