Rabbit only care about the green brush on top, they don't give two f about the orange part below.
So...yeah, I've got bad news for you. Your childhood was a lie.
Somwehere on the internet, I was told that the lie spread because of Bugs Bunny, and that the carrot in his hand was to give off a ba-boy impression, like a man holding a cigarette.
But it was the internet, who can tell if that's true...

You're half right. It was literally just an old movie reference. Thats it. It was only supposed to be a 2 second throw away gag the first time Bugs ate the carrot. It wasn't supposed to be a part of his personality.
It kinda got meme'd before memes were a thing though so the movie reference stuck around so long that the younger kids don't even know the movie reference anymore. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/It_Happened_One_Night
