They aren't because my turmeric rhizome is orange, and as my photo shown they are white. They give out no turmeric smell and tastes bitter and bad. Also they originally were attached to the galangal plant, then migrated to the turmeric later on in the same raised bed.
They certainly are not white skin or hairless. I grew turmeric in many other places in my garden, only this one specific section has them.
Whatever they are, I will trash them.
