I grow carrots of multiple colors all year round. They honestly all taste the same.
Why not?
Sure. I’ll also accept purple and red sweet potatoes.
What’s up, doc?
What is down, doctor? ****

I dunno, I tried purple potatoes once and they were pretty awful.
Carrots being orange by default is thanks to the Dutch. Fucking bastards.
Those God damn dastardly Dutch
Leave it to the Dutch to standardise your food until everything is mediocre
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?
Yes please I want my food looking like its grown in fae soil. My wife makes these purple potatoes that are magical.
… really? I’m bad at getting sarcasm.
Purple potatoes are very real.
They’re extra cool to make mashed potatoes, fries, or chips with.
More antioxidants and slower increase in blood sugar than ordinary potatoes.
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.
Same price or cheaper? Then sure. Variety is good.
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.
Purple is the old carrot. Orange is newer.
