Gay/Straight Ad Watch: Nobody Puts Baby Carrots in the Corner!



Oooh Baby... Carrots.

Steven Colbert has long claimed that baby carrots top his list of "Things That Are Trying to Turn Me Gay." He fears them even more than throw rugs and Clive Owen.

I guess the folks at the carrot growers cooperative have had enough.

Readers, be on the lookout for multiple versions of new "junk food packaging" as you stroll through the veggie section. (Or see the java and flash "crunch powered" madness that is babycarrots.com. Snacktacular! Extreme!)

OK, carrot farmers, you got me with this sarcastic, self-aware approach. Once. But don't get carried away. If I see you try this with celery or radishes, I will be bummed.

Love your title, SG! Most baby carrots aren't at all - they're regular carrots that are put in a giant tumbler until they're shaved and rounded down to a baby-esque shape. That's not real pertinent, but it's Friday night...

Of all the vegetables, they have to chose carrots??

Kinky. I'm surprised they didn't go for a ranch dressing inference.
