Before the 17th century, almost all cultivated carrots were purple! Carrots are a vitamin-rich root vegetable. You can find carrots in a variety of colors besides traditional orange – including yellow, red, and purple.

Carrots have lots of beta carotene which is great for dental health as well as healthy skin. One medium-sized carrot has 30 calories.
