Hahaha I do like this question, as gross as it is. Do you actually see carrots all the time? I can remember times where I’ve had a bug and been sick and not seen any at all. I have read articles about this, some people say it’s pieces of the stomach lining, this I doubt as to resemble carrot it would be prety big and would have left a mighty gap in the lining making it vunerable to the acids of the stomach. I’ve also hear people say that it’s carrot left over thats not been digested yet; this is more feasable as carrots are mostly lignin (a tough fibre that most plants/root vegitables are made from) and are diffictult to digest raw, much the same as sweetcorn.
I must admit I did hear a doc on the telly say that it actually pieces of stomach lining and not carrots. Apparently when you vomit it’s such a violent process that pieces of your stomach lining come away – I think that’s more gross than the idea of it being carrots.
Sometimes the stomach acid (which is yellow) reacts a bit with the food that you have eaten, particularly if its pale, making it look an orangey colour and a bit carrot ike.
