Kirt,

Grated carrots have been tortured...

Their SOEF's disturbed by the conscience-less act...

Of being ripped along a blade...

You are assuming their suffering when you eat them...

Therefore, your immune system has to heal you as it processes the karma...

If you had eaten the carrot whole...

The whole carrot would have been consumed in a peaceful manner...

Inside of your own SOEF aura...

Such a feeding is innocent and peaceful...

If you can figure out whether or not I am serious...

Let me know... ;)

Either way...

I have a noticeable immune response to sitting...

At this computer monitor...!!!
