Name & History

This Hybrid variety could have been a fashion item back in the days! The history of “purple ” carrots start at the beginning of carrots creation. Carrots were categorized in purple and orange. Purple carrots were known to be more tough and better well storing roots, unlike orange carrots, which were more tender and more difficult to store. As the years passed, people were seeking more of the orange variety due to its sweeter taste and its tender texture. So that PurpleSnax variety may seem a bit exotic to your eyes!
