No, but a powdered form is used in some natural remedies.
orris root is used as a natural preservative and a fixative when making pomander balls... However, sandalwood oil is sometimes used as a substitute (1 drop) because some people have an allergy to the orris root powder that is derived from iris roots. I found this answer at www.pioneerthinking.com/pomanders.html Hope it helps, Beulah Brown, Virginia
Arrowroot and orris root are not the same, though they are both plant-derived. Arrowroot is a starchy substance extracted from the rhizomes of several tropical plants, commonly used as a thickening agent in cooking. In contrast, orris root comes from the iris plant and is primarily used for its fragrance in perfumes and as a flavoring agent in some culinary applications. While both have culinary uses, their origins and applications differ significantly.

Of course!
The root of the carrot is what is eaten.

No, cabbage is not classified as a root vegetable. The edible part grows above the ground. Although cabbage has roots, they are not the edible part. Such things as carrot and potato (where the edible parts grow under the ground) are classified as "root" vegetables.
