In a Monsanto-based food economy, finding carrots that actually taste like carrots (or even look like carrots rather than flavorless baby carrots) is becoming more difficult.
Luckily, Seward Coop offers delicious alternatives for people who think natural foods look and taste better than corporate imitations.
Ooh! I saw these the other day when at Seward Co-op. Almost had them in hand but remembered I had other carrots in my fridge…next time…next time.
Am I a bit ‘twisted’ if I say I’m waiting for the photo of the colorful ankle?
Where’s the Freets? This is just getting started. 😉
Most of those “baby” carrots are just regular carrot chunks tumbled like rocks in a rock polisher.
@The Other Mike – I actually didn’t get your reference until I saw the Flickr photo of the ankle. And now there is a post on the event. I guess Ed should really be on the lookout for “dips” when running.
That’s all I have right now, coming up dry. Sorry.
I grew the purple variety in my garden last year and was super sad when I peeled it… it turns out that only the very outer skin is actually purple, the rest is regular old orange. It was a sad, sad day in the Deitch house.
They were purple all the way through for us. Maybe you had defecto-purple ones? That does sound sad.
Ed, I wonder whether you might apply the sort of analysis you did on the Village Voice gaming of Digg to Pajamas Media. They’re suddenly showing half a million a day.
Sorry Freets, guess I was hopped up for more, but I sprang that on you, didn’t mean to cause a strain.
Apologies, but I had to get that out of my system, I broke.
Dan, I think you’re right that something doesn’t smell right at Pajamas. I may take a closer look.
Thanks, Ed. Some of those guys are my friends, but I think Roger may be getting a little desperate.
