Advice Carrots

Hi
I went to Mr T earlier and brought some reduced Carrots. These are different from my regular carrots and are called Chantenay Carrots. I have never got these before-so sorry for being a bit daft. But can you eat them raw like normal carrots? It only comes with cooking instruction and i wanted to give it to children but am a little scared of upset tummies!
Thank you to all for any advice given and please excuse my ignorance:o

    They are perfectly fine to eat raw.

    Basically just a short, fat and sweeter variety of carrot.

    Thanku so much for your quick responses-was just a little worried. Will be chopping them later,ready for tomorrow. I didn't want to poison other peoples children.
    Silly thing is normally im quite a foodie but these must have slipped under the radar.:rotfl:
  • If you see them again .... they're also fantastic roasted! They have so much more flavour than "normal" carrots (they're my favorites!).

  • I love them raw or in a stew as they are much sweeter than normal carrots
    I am playing all of the right notes just not necessarily in the right order :D.
