BIO Carrot

Carrots were already consumed with pleasure in ancient times, although they were rather considered a medicinal plant. However, the carrot of that time was still a white, possibly purple, hard-fleshed root. Its spread was greatly facilitated by the fact that the trade routes connecting Europe with Asia ran near its growing area, and the carrot seed thus reached different parts of the world.
