Ok, so this is weird, but I swear to you that the more baby carrots I eat, the hungrier I get. My stomach will start growling! I have started eating them again with Hummus, and whenver I eat them, I always feel hungrier after.

Snap Peas = fine
Baby Carrots = evil hungry makers

    My brothers and sister and I call this the "carrot hunger"! It happens with apples too!

    Carrots have a high glycemic index - as do carbs and sugars. The more you eat, the more you want. Green vegetables have a low GI, and are more likely to keep you full.

    This makes sense! Thanks!
