        The healthiest foods aren’t usually the ones that tempt our tastebuds or turn our heads.
       
        But two new additions to the supermarket shelves could be about to prove that theory wrong.
       
        A healthier and sweeter variety of broccoli goes on sale today – alongside eye-catching crunchy carrots in colours such as purple, yellow and amber.
       
        The multicoloured carrots have been grown naturally in Norfolk after being cultivated from old varieties which were no longer produced commercially because orange has been the favoured colour for hundreds of years.
       
        　　人们往往觉得更健康的食品口味要差不少，然而，英国超市货架上新出炉的“彩虹萝卜”却推翻了这一看法。这种胡萝卜不仅颜色丰富，从紫到黄一应俱全；口味也比传统胡萝卜甜很多，让人乐于品尝。
       
        　　彩色胡萝卜本是英国诺福克自然生长的植物，但是由于人们都乐于选择橙色的胡萝卜种植，因此其他颜色的胡萝卜日渐稀少。不过彩色的胡萝卜经过人工培育，现在已经在英国各大超市上市，那些不爱吃橙色胡萝卜的孩子们从此将会有新的选择。
