Talk about being a ‘food freak’…
I’m in need of a good laugh, and I hope you are, too!
I’ve found a pretty funny little collection of bizarre, amazing, wacky, and hilariously-shaped produce, grown this way straight from the garden!
Believe me, I could have included a number of naughty-looking fruits and veggies, but I chose to keep this post family-friendly. Some of them really were that bad. Perhaps for another day when I’m feeling more brave!
Enjoy!
My! That’s a very plump rumpkin! Er, I mean…
In case your kids ever turned their nose up at eggplant…

Look, mom — no hands!
And the cucumber says, “quack, quack!”
Hey, Mickey, you’re so fine…
Strawberry Stockings
It’s the Incredible Hulk!
A devilish tomato.
A beary cute potato!
Aw, they’re…hugging!
The Loch Ness Cucumber.
A toe-tally weird radish!
A ‘Tater Tortoise.
It’s a Potatosaurus!
A terrifying turnip!
And lastly, a man who grows baby-shaped fruit:

Has anything this weird ever grown out of your garden? Have you seen some more good pictures of funny-shaped produce around? Pass them on!

Very cute.
Ha, ha! I enjoyed this post! The butt is my favorite though. LOL
Haha! You wouldn’t believe the amount of weird veggies I found shaped like…other…parts of the anatomy! 😛
Wow – hilarious! Those hugging carrots are really sweet…
