A Carrot is a common Vegetable. It can most often be found growing naturally in the ground, but these won't respawn after being picked. Carrots can also be Farmed by planting Seeds for a 31.6% chance of growing or using Carrot Seeds, and they can be Cooked on a fire for extra health when eaten (see below) or used as an ingredient in several Crock Pot recipes.

Carrots have a few miscellaneous interactions and uses. Carrots can be given to a Bunnyman to befriend it, and underground they can also be obtained by deconstructing Rabbit Hutches with a Hammer or Deconstruction Staff, yielding five Carrots per Rabbit Hutch (Ten with the staff). Feeding a Carrot to a Bird in a Birdcage will produce 1ā€“2 Carrot Seeds, as well as a 50% for 1 regular Seed. Carrots will also lure Rabbits towards them, whether as bait for Traps, or simply dropped. This can be useful for getting Morsels, as the Rabbits will not run away when eating a Carrot dropped on the ground. However, if they are not taken care of, they will consume the entire carrot. Rabbits will not eat Carrots if they are left planted in the ground.

Silver Bowl The Gorge

In The Gorge event in Don't Starve Together, Carrots are grown from Oblong Seeds which can be bought from Pipton for one Old Coin. They are used in a variety of Cooking Recipes exclusive to The Gorge.

Prototype Tips

  • Since planted Carrots never spoil, they can be used as an emergency food supply. And since they do not respawn, not picking them until it is necessary improves availability of food during times when food sources are otherwise scarce.

Placeholder Trivia

  • Carrots are the only farmable plant that also spawn naturally in the base game and the Reign of Giants DLC. The Shipwrecked DLC adds Sweet Potatoes which share the same trait.
  • Most of the characters will look towards Carrots with a certain degree of dislike, Wilson comments on them with "Yuck. I pulled this vegetable out of the dirt.", Willow says "Yuck. It's all vegetabley.", Woodie will begrudgingly call it "Rabbit Food", Webber will say he misses being forced to eat them, and Maxwell will say he's not a fan of vegetables.
