    If it’s trending on TikTok, it’s fucking stupid and probably dangerous. But we had a president that suggested we drink bleach, so I give up.

    Fuck it.

      It’s 3 carrots a day and the skin color is harmless (other than not actually protecting against UV but that’s, like, not worse than not doing it) so it’s actually quite positive. As long as they don’t think they can suddenly skip sunscreen, …

      I actually had this happen to me as a little kid. I had to go to the hospital because they needed to check if I was jaundiced. Turned out it was just that my favorite foods are carrots and squash. Eating more vegetables isn’t a bad thing.

        That’s both a yes and no. Veggies are good. Overindulgence is not.

        Carrots are quite heavy on sugar. Most “root fruits” are.

        It’s a typical problem people run into when trying to loose weight via dieting.

        Edit: Three carrots a day shouldn’t be a problem though.

          Eating too much of anything is bad for you. Carrots are only a problem if someone is trying to diet and allows themselves infinite vegetables because vegetables are healthy though. Which is a silly thing to do.
