Butternut squash is orange due to its high content of carotenoids, particularly beta-carotene, which is a pigment that gives many fruits and vegetables their orange and yellow hues. This pigment not only contributes to the squash's vibrant color but also serves as a precursor to vitamin A, which is essential for various bodily functions. The orange color is an indication of its nutritional value, as carotenoids are powerful antioxidants.
