The whole rabbits and carrots thing literally started with Bugs Bunny… and the reason why he munches on a carrot was originally a reference to a 1934 Clark Gable film where Clark’s character is cracking wise and munching on a huge carrot. Audiences loved it. The animators wanted that to be a reference. But it stuck as a trait for Bugs.
Who the fuck is concerned about sugar in carrots, of all things?
Rabbits really can’t eat carrots all of the time because the high sugar content can lead to metabolic disease. Buggs Bunny steered everyone wrong.
There is a difference between eating only carrots as your diet and avoiding carrots in your meal because of their carbs content.
I said nothing about only eating carrots. They’re supposed to be an occasional treat, not a regular food source.
