    Baby carrots are in fact baby carrots. They're harvested just a few days after germination.

    No, no they aren't. They are big carrots that broke and have been essentially sanded to look different.

    Yep- this is true- there was an episode of "how it's made" or one of those shows about it- big carrots chopped up and sanded down- I was so dissappointed! :sad:
