a cry of warning

The phenomenon of water in a bag of baby carrots is probably scientifically explainable, but that would ruin my tale. As far as I'm concerned, the carrots peed in the bag. Today I was being environmentally friendly and decided to take the carrots in the bag they normally come in rather than put them into a sandwich bag and waste that much more plastic. I pulled them out of the fridge and stuck them in my back pack for lunch. There was not any H2O residue on the bag that I noticed.

I dare to postulate that the carrots got so excited at going for a ride in my bag that they peed their bag- probably more than once. I say more than once because they peed the bag to capacity and burst little holes in it to then allow the pee to spread into my backpack. I discovered their dastardly deed when I got to work and opened my bag to get my jump drive. Carrot pee. In my bag. I don't care how a botanist, biologist, nephrologist, or phlebotomist explains this carrot phenomenon; the carrots peed.

Carrots need help.

Remember yesterday when I picked up a bag of carrots and you said "watch out they pee" right as the bag relieved itself on my skirt?

I want to tell you that, scientifically, the carrots do indeed pee.
