A closed-end, cylindrical carrot would overblow a 12th. Most carrots are
sorta conical, so I would assume that most would overblow an octave.

I've heard the fiber in the carrots isn't as good as it used to be.

These goofballs don't understand why the audience is laughing at them? What
color is the sky in their world? Surely they're pulling our collective legs.
And I'm not sure I'd be eating concoctions made from vegetables that have
been overblown into. Who decides what "excessive" saliva is?
