Watch Los Hombres De Paco

Today we speak of small, practical and delicious ... baby carrots! Surely you have seen all: they are small, already cleaned, orange as ever, perfect for a quick side dish or a snack! Yes, but ... have you ever thought about what revolves around their "glory?" Today we will try to figure it out together through a disturbing article I found today on the homepage of Yahoo ( http://it.lifestyle.yahoo.com/benessere/baby-carote-% C3% A8-true-that-are-evil-article-fzby.html ); I put it to you below.

"They have a deep color, are small and often are already clean, ready to nibble on. The Baby Carrots have conquered the market , especially that segment of consumers who need to stimulate the eye, rather than appetite, just as children who are struggling to eat vegetables or singles who do not have the time or desire to get in the kitchen.

Unfortunately, like the vast majority of pre-packaged food, the Baby Carrots hide the "virtues" unwelcome to the health and portfolio , because they cost almost twice the normal carrots. And then to become small and cute, there is a very expensive process. Must be clean, washed with substances that allow the color to be preserved, even after a few days, bright, as if they had just been cut from her mother. In addition, again for reasons of conservation, contain chemicals such as chlorine and antibacterial, much less beta-carotene, the antioxidant that gives the color orange, and a lot more sugar.

But there's more. This baby product there is almost nothing . They do not result, in fact, a quality child and young carrots. Almost all belong to the category 'carrot-giants', with preference to others because it can reach very large very quickly. Here, then, that by one carrot if they can get different mignon .

But it is worth giving our children a bag of baby carrots as a snack instead of any brioche wrapped? Of course sometimes you can do, it is always vegetables, but be aware that even in this case we are choosing a product 100% natural, a bit 'as some bagged salads.

The Baby Carrots are made to recover the excessive waste production of a plant carrots in the United States in the early eighties. All the plants that is not perfectly in form, maybe they were too short and lumpy, were converted into fertilizer or food for livestock, although they were edible. Hence the idea of \u200b\u200btransforming a difference in a real business , very profitable in less than ten years. "

At this point I think it's more than clear that a bag of care old traditional Carotone ugly and distorted to clean home health much more than we earn to buy these little gems ...

YOU JUDGE!

PS. 1 kg of carrots have a normal cost of between 60 cent e 1,40 euro. 250 grammi di carotine superano di parecchio il costo al chilo delle loro parenti "grandi"... per cui pensateci bene prima di comprare le baby carote: scegliendo le carote tradizionali, ci guadagnate in salute e in denaro!
