    It’s still a lie even if you eat the carrots. IIRC, the lie was spread by the British to hide the fact they had equipped their aeroplanes with radar.

      I mean, getting your beta-carotene and lutein (both of which carrots have) IS very good for your eye health.

      Just not anywhere near the miracle that the British government was pretending in order to keep radar a secret while promoting healthy eating 🤷🏻
