Why are most domesticated rabbits white?

I had rabbits of all colors. Very few where really fully white.. Most of them had patches of brown and grey on them. Personally speaking I love white bunnies. They are really cute with their red eyes. But my favorite pet rabbit was Garry a soft grey and white bunny.. he was really naught and would often run away.. when we opened the cage.. He was eaten up by a cat at night when he opened his cage and got out. He was the last of my rabbits.. I was so sad that I never had rabbits again.
