Carrot color


 
Purple - yellow orange carrot   
Purple carrot with yellow orange inside

 
Three of a pair
Three different carrots

 
Carrots can have different colors and cores.  The purple carrots are considered "eastern" (i.e., from the East - Persia).  Orange carrots are more common.  Even they can have different colored cross sections.
 
P.S.  the orange carrot on the right was the tastiest.
