It is National Nutrition Month, so I wanted to highlight one of my favorite veggies – the humble yet versatile carrot. There are some lingering myths about this orange vegetable, or are they myths. Take this short quiz and see if you know what is fact and what is fiction when it comes to carrots.

18Your skin turns that color because Vitamin A (same with D, E and K)is a fat soluble vitamin. If you have to much you can't just pee it out, it stays in your adipose tissue.
