Division 5.2 Specificity of the product
United Kingdom
Carrots from the Lammefjord region have a very smooth surface and retain their colour after washing and during storage. They retain their colour as the sand in the soil has been polished and is smoother and rounder than in classic sandy soils, which means that the carrots do not have cracks in them when they are harvested. Carrots from the Lammefjord region can therefore be refrigerated and handled at all times of the year without causing surface discoloration.
