Raw vs Cooked Carrots… Which is Better?

Fun Food Facts!

Did you know that cooking carrots is better for you than eating raw carrots?

Cooking carrots releases the hidden pockets of good-for-you beta-carotene. In fact, eating carrots raw only gives you three per cent of this substance, but when you heat them up, they release closer to forty per cent! So why not try these sweet vegetables pureed into soup, sliced thin onto a salad, braised in butter or baked?
