My son is a pretty picky eater but one thing he does love are glazed carrots. It’s been awhile since we’ve been to a Cheddar’s because there’s not one super close to us, but the last time we went my son ate all of his carrots when we went. I can’t say I blame him, the carrots at Cheddar’s are really good!
