—Unused achievement description, Rayman Legends (game files)

Turnips are plants found in Rayman Legends. They are always first seen attached to the ground, with only their green leaves being visible. The heroes can then pluck them out of the ground by performing a crush attack, or in the Wii U, PlayStation Vita, and Nintendo Switch versions of the game, by using Murfy to pull them out. The turnip will then land on the ground, stunned, allowing the heroes to hit it for Lums. The blue turnips can produce purple Lums if hit in mid-air, while the pink turnips produce a heart when hit. Not all green leaves are connected to turnips. Some will bring up an enemy or a cage containing a Teensie or Lums. In the game files, the pink and blue roots are stored separately from the leaves. They have three different variants: one covered in snow for the Mystical Pique and Gourmand Land, another for the medieval castle theme, and a normal variant that appears in most worlds.

Rayman Adventures

In early builds of Rayman Adventures, turnip leaves appear without the turnips themselves. They are scattered across different worlds, such as Toad Story and Medieval Mayhem; some of them can contain either Lum cages or Teensie cages.

In the first soft-launch releases of Rayman Adventures, an achievement for pulling up ten turnips existed. It was replaced with one for breaking Lum cages, but that achievement was eventually removed as well.

Rayman's Incrediballs Dodge

In this game leafscrews appear, while the fruit turnip does not. If the incrediball is standing on a leafscrew it will get stuck for a few seconds.

Trivia

• Turnips are reminiscent of the vegetables in Super Mario Bros. 2, which Mario and other playable characters can dig up by pulling them by their leaves and then throwing them at enemies. The developers of Rayman Legends were likely inspired by this when creating the turnips.
