Addicted?: Carrots are not addictive. You could have worse habits and there are no bad side effects from eating them. If this behavior distresses you however, it may be a compulsion. A compulsion is defined as an uncontrollable desire to perform ant act whether it is eating, hoarding, gambling etc... If this is the case, see your doctor.
