When radar was still classified, Brits claimed they could see the planes because they are a lot of carrots.

It didn’t fool the axis, but civilians in Britain kind of believed it.

It’s hard to tell, they’re always saying something with a wink and a nod.

They might not have known what radar was, but they knew no amount of carrots made that big of difference, it’s not like the English had never ate carrots before.
