A sentient Carrot appears in ''[[Super Mario-kun]]'', first appearing in the last chapter of [[Super Mario-kun Volume 6|Volume 6]], where she helps Mario defeat a [[Ragumo]] and [[Bopping Toady]]. When the ''Super Mario Land 2'' arc properly starts in the [[Super Mario-kun Volume 7|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.

Carrots also make a brief appearance in ''[[Mario Kirby Meisaku Video]]''. After Mario crashes his [[kart]] during his pursuit of the mysterious thief [[Wario|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 also appear in ''[[Mario Party: The Top 100]]'', replacing the generic 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]]''.
