Food...again.

The other night we had these really freaky carrots for dinner.

I found them at our local grocery store...in a bag...like regular carrots. But these are called "Heirloom" carrots.

Here they are unpeeled, just outta the bag.
Yep, that's them. Purple, gold, white, and of course, orange. These are freaky. But check them out once they are peeled.
So bright...now here they are chopped.

How cool is that? And if you're wondering what they tasted like...they tasted like carrots. Honestly, if you closed your eyes while eating them, you would've never known.

When I cooked them, the dark purple colour tended to bleed onto the white carrots so they came out a pretty mauve shade.

The kids all tried them, except for the one child who doesn't eat cooked carrots. He figured that if he didn't like orange ones, he definitely didn't like purple, gold or white ones.

I also did an experiment by feeding the baby ONLY purple ones. He ate quite a few. But I promise I will not post any pics of the results of the experiment.
