Carrots also appear in ''[[Super Mario Advance]]'' (and strangely not in the original ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]'' and other remakes of said game) as platforms that would bounce up out of hills and help Mario and company reach higher lands. They only appeared in two levels, though.

A Carrot[1][2] (alternatively lowercase),[3] also referred to as a Magic Carrot,[4] is an item that appears in Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins. It transforms Mario into Bunny Mario, but Wario also uses it to transform into Bunny Wario.[5]

A sentient Carrot appears in Super Mario-kun, first appearing in the last chapter of Volume 6, where she helps Mario defeat a Ragumo and Bopping Toady. When the Super Mario Land 2 arc properly starts in the next volume, Carrot, turned into a proper character, joins Mario on his adventure, giving him the Bunny Mario powers whenever he touches her. In personality, she resembles Luigi from the previous story arc, in that she is more reasonable and smarter than Mario, always getting angry at him whenever he does something foolish. During the final battle, Carrot gets hypnotized by Wario and turns evil, granting him the Bunny powers, but is later freed. More carrots appear in later chapters and volumes, but they are just normal, non-anthropomorphic carrots. One of those carrots, sold by Wario in Volume 6, turns Bowser into an ox.

Carrots appear in Mario Kirby Meisaku Video briefly. After Mario crashes his kart during his pursuit of the mysterious thief W, who was trying to escape in his plane, the Bulldog, Mario finds a garden full of Carrots, eats one, and transforms into Bunny Mario.

Carrots in the Super Mario Mash-up in Minecraft replace the traditional Minecraft carrots.

Carrots in Mario Party: The Top 100 replace the regular carrots seen in the minigame Rockin' Raceway.

A crate of carrots, retaining their Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins design, is toppled over during the evacuation of Toad Town in The Super Mario Bros. Movie.
