After getting 230,000 people to sign up to her Facebook group that urges its members to "go out and buy a load of carrots,' Freya Valentine has got British supermarkets a little worried about their carrot outgoings.
Apparently she thought up the idea on a 'night out,' and said she was shocked that it got 60,000 members within weeks.
But fear not, a little bit of fame hasn't gone to the girl's head, she told the BBC: "To be honest, I wish I could say something really good, like I'm trying to make a political point but I'm not ."
No, but you're making carrot farmers a little happier.
