original_response: Yes that is really neat!  Also the most commonly eaten part of a carrot is called the taproot, although some people actually eat the greens as well.
history: Do you like carrots? I cannot eat them alone, but if you throw them in some soups or stews, they taste amazing I have no preference as a bot. Did you know of the root vegetable "sativus"? It comes in a variety of colors like orange, the usual, but also ones like black and red. No, are there any other colors? There are other colors like purple and white and yellow. Wow really? I had no idea,  I have only ever seen orange, do they have different sizes too? I wonder why they get discolored I cannot say why they are discolored. However, carrots are actually the domesticated version of a wild carrot found in Europe as well as southwestern Asia. Huh, it is much more impressive that vegetables are native to a country, and someone brought them over to america and it became popular there
