Carrots are vegetables seen in the game, School of Dragons.
Description[]
Carrots (Daucus carota sativus) are plants with a long, single tap root and green thin-leaved stems which sprout above ground. The root is typically a shade of orange, but cultivating has produced other colors such as white, red, yellow, or purple. The carrot that is grown by humans is considered a subspecies of the wild carrot, and originated in Persia. The root contains many vitamins and minerals and is considered a food beneficial for health.
Function[]
Carrot roots are used in the Franchise and real life as food. The carrot tops - stems and leaves - are also edible, but are eaten on a much smaller scale. Carrots are valued for their nutritional content, particularly of carotenes, which may be beneficial for eye health. This quality is mentioned in a Farm Job in School of Dragons:
“ | I eat carrots by the bushel, my friend, because I like having good eyesight! | ” |
— Trader Johann in School of Dragons |
Dragons are shown to eat carrots as well, as evidenced by another Farm Job.
“ | Eret demands carrots for his Thunderdrum! I must oblige. | ” |
— Johann in School of Dragons |
Yet another Farm Job implicates carrots (along with strawberries and toothache plants) are good for soothing sore dragon mouths, though in reality there is no evidence for this.
