What is in the case
The supplier states no weight for the 24BU pack, so we quote it as a pack and publish no price per pound for it. That is a limit of the source, and the reason our figure stays comparable from one week to the next: a per-pound price built on an assumed case weight moves whenever the assumption does.

About Baby rainbow carrot
These are true baby carrots — small carrots pulled young and sold bunched with the tops on — and they are not the cut-and-tumbled baby carrots of retail bags, which are mature carrots machined down to shape. That distinction is the whole purchase: bunched carrots are bought for the top, for the taper and for the flavor of a carrot pulled young, and they are quoted by the case of bunches. Supply runs off continuous California plantings rather than a harvest window, so the item stays on the list.
Buying notes
Quoted by the case of bunches, so the comparison is per bunch, and the number of carrots in a bunch is not fixed — check the caliber if the plate depends on it. The tops are the perishable part: a bunch with tired greens is a discount item, not a fresh one.
