Does the number fourteen relate to carrots...?

Why is it that when instructed to read the word fourteen, fourteen times & then asked to name a vegatable, carrot is the first vegetable to come to mind...?

This really works.Why.??

Answer:
I don't think this really works. I did this little trick on my mother and my boyfriend. My mom said 'turnip' and my boyfriend said 'early june peas'. strange!

I would have said 'celery'.

However, if it does work on NORMAL people, it is probably just because when asked to name a vegetable, a carrot is the most common answer.
because there are approximately 14 carrots in a bunch or package
probably because of rings 14 carot gold
Its the way your memory works..its searching for a two syllable common vegetable in alphabetical order..
I did that and I think its not carrots but deeper than that. I got a fruit and not a vegetable. But it is the type of fruit that is of interest. An orange!
same colour as a carrot so there is some truth in the Chinese theory that sound and colour are related. And that all sounds can be converted into colours. So there you are.
maybe your thinking of gold as in 14 karat
Because that was the name of the fourteenth disciple...hallelujah
