What is the sound of one mind boggling?

I went into the kitchen to microwave my soup and wash some baby carrots. One of my cow-orkers was slicing up a cucumber and a tomato.

Me: Would you like some baby carrots?
Cow-orker (in horrified tone of voice): No, those have carbs!
Me: They're carrots!
Second cow-orker: No one ever got fat from eating carrots.

For the record, a 1 cup serving contains:
Cucumbers: 1.89 g of carbohydrates
Carrots: 11.69 g of carbohydrates
Tomatoes: 7.06 g of carbohydrates

I thought the Atkins madness had ended.
