Carrots are Just Vegetables

Growing up, my parents told my sisters and me that carrots were good for our eyesight.  Considering my love for the crunchy orange vegetable and the coke-bottle-thick lenses in my glasses, I had always assumed this was a lie to get my sisters to eat healthy.

As an adult, I once woke up after a day of carrot binging with (what I thought) was perfect eyesight..  "It's a miracle! It finally happened!" I exclaimed in my PJs, "All hail the Great Carrot, Wizard of the Vegetable World!!"  Then I blinked a few times and realized that my contacts were still in from the night before and sticking to my eyeballs.

Carrots are not magical; they're just vegetables.

The end.
