Why do carrots stain EVERYTHING?

I'm not that fussed about the bowls and spoons but I have borrowed a high chair from a friend for a couple of weeks until ours is delivered and there are noticeable yellow marks on the tray. I really want to return it the way I got it especially since it was fine after a year of use but I seem to have wrecked it within a few weeks Blush? Any tips or tricks?

Lemon juice? Toothpaste?

If you think carrot is bad, try watermelon!!

Have you tried leaving it out in the sun?

Thanks! I'll give all of those a try.

And thanks for the warning re: watermelon.

Try vegetable oil on it? The stuff in carrots that makes it stain disolves best in oils, so it's worth a try.
