Reply to comment by thealthor in TIL that in ancient times, the carob seed was used to measure the worth of gems and gold since the seeds have a general uniform weight. This is where the word "karat" comes from. by kkoolook

You'll need a Zeio nut for that, Carob will only get you as far as black.

Shoot, my memory was off

>The only nut that will never produce a gold Chocobo offspring is the Carob Nut. Even when breeding two gold Chocobos with a Carob Nut, the resulting offspring will never be golden.

Though if you are going to breed a Gold from scratch you have to use Carob nuts in the process, so kind of technically still sort of correct....
