158 'Take my case' says Mrs. HARASS "I can see why they tell us to eat 21 lot of carrots," says Mrs. Harass, "and all that about using home-grown stuff instead of imported is only common sense. But what's the use of your pretending, just because they happen to be plentiful, that carrots are the most wonderful food that ever was? A boiled carrot is just a boiled carrot, and no news to anyone." You're wrong, Mrs. Harass; carrots don't "happen" to be plentiful. They are plentiful because of the foresight of the Government and the hard work of the British farmer.
