Carrots are a taproot, a type of root which grows downwards into the soil and swells. Carrots come in many sizes and shapes; round, cylindrical, fat, very small, long or thin.
Native to Afghanistan, carrots were known to both the Greeks and Romans. In fact, the Greeks called the carrot "Philtron", and used it as a love medicine - making men more ardent and women more yielding. The Roman emperor Caligula, believed these stories, and forced the whole Roman Senate to eat carrots.
