That depends -- the answer isn't black and white, but rather shades of orange. True baby carrots of the Nantes variety are full-grown but have been bred small. Most baby carrots, however, are of the Imperator variety -- a long, slender carrot that is peeled and chopped into smaller pieces. Bred to ripen fast and grow long, they look small once chopped, but they weren't born yesterday.

There are no such things as actualy baby carrots. They are literally worn down regular-sized carrots, made that way by being tossed around in a big round metal machine. Pretty cool, huh?

I don't think baby carrots "get small". They just never "get big"

There is a machine that shaves them to become small carrots.

See, it's like this. They take a full grown carrot and put it in a pencil sharpener. See, they're naturally huge. It's not like they actually GROW or anything.

It's not that they got small. It's that they did not get big.
