Explanation

We use a polite sentence in a shop: I would like some carrots, please. We can count some foods: one banana, two eggs. We use a before a consonant sound: a banana, a carrot. We use an before a vowel sound: an egg, an onion, an orange. Other foods we cannot count: rice, milk, bread. We say some with them: some rice, some milk. We also use some with more than one: some carrots, some grapes.
