    Carrots being orange by default is thanks to the Dutch. Fucking bastards.

    Carrots (and corn) have come in a variety of colors since time immemorial.

    You never thought having the same standardized food throughout the year everywhere on the continent is actually weirder?

    Yeah, my mom grows carrots in a variety of colours, not just the new orange one that’s become so common. Also grows blue potatoes, purple beans and whatnot, because she has more fun with more colourful food.

    Dark heirloom tomatoes are pretty neat too.

    Same price or cheaper? Then sure. Variety is good.

    Purple is the old carrot. Orange is newer.

    I grow carrots of multiple colors all year round. They honestly all taste the same.
