I could be misremembering, I haven't had a garden in a year, I just remember feeling scammed when 1 of the colors was only on the outside.

Really nice carrot btw, girthy ๐Ÿคค

Oh, I didn't mean to put your comment into question. I did find pictures on the internet like these, so it seems to be a thing:

Purple carrots have been around for longer than the orange variety, though, so it'd be a bit weird to create a variety which is only purple on the outside just for scam purposes. Like, you can likely get the seeds for actually purple carrots much more easily. ๐Ÿ™ƒ

Oh, maybe it was the reds not the purples.
