    German who grew up in the 21st century here. The myth that eating lots of carrots will improve your eyesight/nightvision significantly is still more or less alive and well here. I sort of believed it until I saw a variation on this meme for the first time.

    I’d say it seems to have worked pretty well.

      As a millennial American, I was taught it as a child, and I’d estimate most people I know believe it to be true.
