Mike Nolan.Today’s Theme: How much Vitamin A is there in vegetables
[See the full post at: Daily Quiz for March 27, 2019]
It surprised me to learn carrots have more Vitamin A than sweet potatoes.
Keep in mind that's for a 4 ounce serving. I suspect you're more likely to eat a larger portion of sweet potato than of carrots.
Years ago my wife and I attended a conference at a resort in SW Florida that included several meals. I don't know what the deal was, maybe the chef got a heckuva bargain on a carload of raw carrots, but we had candied carrots at every meal, including breakfast. We had one evening off, so we ate in one of the hotel restaurants, one that specialized in fish. (We were on the Florida Gulf Coast, after all.) Guess what vegetable came with our meal? Yup, candied carrots.
