Were they Canadian carrots? Store here sell both California and Canadian
carrots. Sometimes the California carrots are not available and I will buy a
bag of Canadian. They look like carrots but always seem to have a "woodier"
texture and a much different taste. I buy them thinking that the last time
was just a fluke and maybe the latest crop will be different. I just bought
a small bag of Canadian a few weeks ago and that is the last time I will
ever buy them.
