It is true you will turn orange if all you eat is carrots...you get too much beta carotine (sp). It usually happens to those who have anorexia and only eat carrots. It ends up being a lot of carrots and that being your only source of food. You cannot actually be poisoned by it and those recovering anorexia sufferers cannot eat anything else with beta carotine in it.

P.S. I know because a friend of mine's friend underwent the orange turning.
