I actually thought potato.

I've seen this before, and it got me before. My experience has been that most people (included me) do think carrot. And I knew that I was supposed to think something, but before my brain even started to remember what I was supposed to think, potato popped into my head (boy that sounds weird written like that). I knew immediately that that was the 'wrong' answer, but I still couldn't remember the 'right' answer.

Anyway - I just wonder if anyone else had a similar experience...

You rat - I was actually going to say "onion" and then changed to "carrot." Just goes to show you should always stick with your first answer..... I hate being predictable.

I thought zucchini. Do I need medication?

I don't know about medication but you might want to consider counseling.

Doesn't look like broccoli to me!

I thought Broccoli too

I thought of zucchini too. Maybe it's my Texas accent.

Hmmm...it seems that women are coming up with zucchini, the most phallic of the vegetables...guys are thinking of broccoli, which is essentially a bush...odd...or perverted?

Broccoli is not a vegetable anyway. Its only purpose is to serve as a vehicle for cheese sauce.

I thought banana.Guess I need therapy now,since I can't even tell the difference between fruits and vegetables.:-(

I always think of carrots. Always.

Ig-mo. If you "think of onion" then change your answer to "carrot" then the first vegetable you think of is "onion."

No carrot for you!

I admit it; I thought of carrot. But I went with garlic, so I one up'd the test! mheh.

Why carrot? Maybe it's the same wiring that -- when you ask someone to name a color -- makes most people answer "red". Hmmm. It may have nothing to do with all the sixes at all.

Broccoli was my choice too. Interesting that some of us went completely in the other direction...wonder what THAT means.

It's a psychosis response scale with carrot being "normal" and broccolli being ... well ... what feste said.

Didnt know a tomato was orange and skinny

So I was intrigued by this little "mind trick' and did a little experiment in the class I teach. I made 1/3 of people say TWENTY twenty times (that's what I read works in addition to an equation adding up to 6), the other 1/3 said the word AVERAGE (just to see if a word causes the same response) and a control group I made say nothing before I asked them to name the first vegetable they think of. Here are the results. Of groups 2 and 3, 30% of people said CARROT. But that number jumped to 50% for Group 1. That difference is statistically significant, i.e. something about the word TWENTY (maybe I should have used other numbers to see if it is twenty or just some mathematical stuff) that causes people to say CARROT more. Odd thing is that there is really NO obvious connection between 20 and CARROT so why does it happen? (I had thought that all 3 groups would show the same incidence of the Carrot response). Anyway, point to note, only half of the people you ask will say CARROT after the number TWENTY. Not so high after all, eh?

Very neat!

I think I've figured the correlation between "carrot" and "twenty". Other good numbers to use to duplicate the effect are fourteen, eighteen and twenty-four.

We hear "20 karat" all the time.
