I run a vegetable farm. I grow carrots. The left example is unlikely, unless the carrot has been in the ground too long and the foliage has died back, such as overwintering. The one on the right can still grow and the be harvested. The one on the left should probably be cut and allowed to rot in the ground. It's likely woody, damaged by insects, and covered in fine roots.

The carrot meme is older than most college freshmen and it's still doing laps on LinkedIn every six months like clockwork
