The food eaten daily is mainly roots or stems, mainly depending on whether there are roots on the part of the food, such as potatoes, which are smooth and have no fibrous roots or root hairs on them, which are tubers. Sweet potatoes, which have roots on them, eat roots, and radishes, which have root hairs on them, eat roots.
