Sugar is just one of a couple ways energy is stored in nature and is found in most food in varying quantities. Eating sugar is fine. Unless you're diabetic or have some other medical reason to avoid sugar, you don't need to avoid sugars such as those in carrots, but you'd still be best off skipping the soda and other foods/drinks made with highly concentrated sugar (high fructose corn syrup, as one example) because not all sugars are the same. They have different chemical structures, and in general anything in excess in your body will cause problems, whether it's sugar or iron or water or anything else. So go forth and eat your (peas and) carrots! :)
