Carrots & Night Vision
Parents have lots of tricks to get their kids to eat their vegies. One often-used persuasive tale is that if they don't eat their carrots, they'll go blind, or at the very least, not be able to see in the dark. The parents are telling a little white lie, but there is in this little fib, as there is in all good mythconceptions, a small seed of truth.
