When I was 3 or so my parents, without getting into lengthy explanations of Vitamin A, told me carrots would help me see in the dark. That night, well after bedtime, I snuck into the kitchen and stole a carrot from the fridge. My parents caught me in my dark bedroom trying to use it as a flashlight.
