The sweet and mild flavour of miniature carrots appeals to young and old alike. They are perfect as a nutritious snack on the go. Raw or cooked, their nutritional value is unique. Indeed, miniature carrots contain beta-carotene, a pigment that plays a protective role on the vision mechanism, thus improving the health of the retina. Baby carrots were "invented" in the 1980's by a farmer who was throwing away good carrots that were too misshapen or ugly to sell. By cutting them up, they became more attractive and could be sold, giving rise to an entire industry. What makes a fruit or a vegetable certified organic? They are grown without chemical pesticides or herbicides and are only in contact with natural fertilizers or composted organic material. The seeds are also organic, which means they are not from GMOs.
