Recently, at the ACME and the produce markets, the bags of baby carrots are
pencil thin. Unnatural almost.
Of course they're not really baby carrots but what's driving the producers to
shave them down so small?
Have you seen them?

Profit margins? Those micro baby carrots are to thin because they're
probably the remnants of regular carrots after the shavings are used on
the pre-mixed, pre-packaged salads available at most grocery stores
(YMMV), but that's just a guess on my part.

Yes, but why should you care, Andy? They do not have 2 pounds of grease
in them so you will not be eating them.

I buy them for my grandson to eat raw. He has braces and is not supposed to
bite into raw carrots. These are soft enough that he can eat them. I'm
thinking people with dentures or other dental problems would like these as
well.

They have gotten skinnier. I buy them for my lovebird to snack on. Usually
they have a nice fat end that fits snugly in her treat-holder. Now I find
them falling out the moment she starts to nibble on one. I guess I'll
switch back to real carrots for her.

My main supermarket sells the regular baby carrots and then "mini" baby
carrots.

He'll probably dip them in packaged cake frosting.

no.... but it must be something like grated carrots only sturdier.
Use them raw, not cooked. What are they called? Matchstick carrots
would have "sides".
