Golden Carrot

A golden carrot is an item used as a brewing ingredient for making Potion of Night Vision. It is also a vital item in creating the Potion of Invisibility as the Potion of Invisibility requires a Night Vision potion and a Fermented Spider Eye.

Trivia

 * Golden carrots being used for potions of night vision is based on the common misconception that eating carrots can improve one's vision; this is only true if one has vitamin A deficiency.
 * Golden carrots may be the most beneficial (magical effects excluding) food item so far: their effective food+saturation value is 20.4 - just a bit less than that of meat (20.8), and they are 1.5 times as nourishing, meaning you'll spend a greater fraction of time in saturated state with health regeneration on. Nonetheless, they require nearly a full gold ingot's worth of gold nuggets in order to be created, and with gold being quite a rare material, it's better to save this item for potions of invisibility and night vision.
 * Unlike other potion ingredients, golden carrot isn't used to brew mundane potion.
