Carrots being orange by default is thanks to the Dutch. Fucking bastards.
Leave it to the Dutch to standardise your food until everything is mediocre
Those God damn dastardly Dutch
Carrots (and corn) have come in a variety of colors since time immemorial.
Carrots used to be purple originally.
I just had purple carrots yesterday. Is there some controversy about them I don’t know about?
You never thought having the same standardized food throughout the year everywhere on the continent is actually weirder?
Yeah, I already buy the tri-colored carrots, and the purple are my favs.
Purple is the old carrot. Orange is newer.
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.
I have and they are delicious

Yeah, my daughter loves purple color. So making mashed potatoes and adding in purple carrots would be kinda nice.
You could use purple potatoes. Or Aussie sweet potatoes, which are orange.
I grow carrots of multiple colors all year round. They honestly all taste the same.
Fuck yeah. Multicoloured food is amazing
There’s a purple carrot in my fridge right now…
Why not?
