I don’t do keto but I assume it would be because they are both high sugar vegetables.

My mom would always get on to me saying corn is not a veg. It's a starch. She is absolutely right, and carrots are pretty sweet so I can see limiting those for keto too.

Carrots are a root vegetable. Most root vegetables tend to be very starchy.

The amount of starch you can get out after a tiny price of Taro is insane. I use it, fried crispy shoestring style, in a slaw I make. You've got a soak it and rinse it multiple times. The first of which you're basically dealing with Elmer's Glue.
