                                Celery's color differences are primarily influenced by sunlight exposure during its growth. The outer, darker green stalks are exposed to more sunlight, while the inner, lighter ones are shielded. Understanding whether light or dark green celery is better depends largely on your culinary needs and flavor preferences.
