Dont carrots have a lot of sugar tho?

[-] Mac@mander.xyz 2 points 1 day ago

Keep in mind that sugars in fruit are a lot different than the highly processed sweeteners added to our foods.

Literally doesn't matter. It comes with fiber... Don't even worry about it

What are you going to eat instead? There's no staple food that isn't primarily starch

I'd skip carrots and go with lentils. Carbs but also 25-30% protein, and good fiber.

Lentils are fine, but carrots greatly reduce the chances of cancer. This isn't a negotiation, just eat the damn carrots lol

Yes sir/madam/non specified. I put some in my lentils

[-] theneverfox@pawb.social 1 points 8 hours ago

Yes, good girl/boy. 20% reduction in cancer with five servings a week. Cooking it is just fine

I'm proud of you, you're doing well. You're doing it, you can cook the carrots. However you want it, I just want you to be better protected against cancer

I got in an argument over this sentence yesterday, but I think it aplies here: Perfect is the enemy of good. Carrots are fine, lentils are fine, and there's always something better probably.
