Where do baby carrots come from, asks Cameron Meikle?

He then proceeds to answer his own question with this fine picture of a pair of naughty love carrots striking a pose.

“I found these both lurking in the bottom of the same bag!” He says.

We can only wonder what they’d been up to.

We like the ghostly up-lighting! Like a torch under the chin, only in this case, under the carrots… no less effective.

Thank you Cameron!

Today we have Lea Alissa to thank for these smashing pictures of spuds which look like willies!

Says Lea

“I stumbled upon these on the net… ‘Not sure if they will appear clear on your site though…”

Have no fear Lea, they certainly do! Thank you for sending them in!

Enjoy!

Pervy Potato 1 - or is that a Yam?

Pervy Potato 2

Two smashing links for you to enjoy, today.

First up, the Mutato Collection. Ok so one of the tomatoes is in its straightforward natural form BUT I bow to the other pieces of amazing vegetable weirdness displayed.

Second, MoFa Museum of Food Anomalies - great name - An online exhibition of the Art of Regular Food Gone Horribly Wrong. A wider remit than mine, it includes not only vegetables but other foods such as, the “happily oblivious” ice cream shown below.  However, in a similar vein, visitors and regular readers are invited to submit their own anomalous foods.

What I find particularly interesting is that both these sites appear to be run as conceptual art projects by artists.  Though I run this site as an escape… a hobby, in the real world I do, also, happen to be an artist.  Is it something to do with our temperament, I wonder?

Another fine submission from Peter Bailey, who grows his own carrots and is therefore one of the few people who will appreciate just how extraordinary the straight, “normal” carrots we see in supermarkets actually are.

This fine example looks like a pair of chubby man-thighs with a little stubby willy.

Thank you, again, Peter!

Here is another smashing submission, this time from Tony and Cathy Burrows… they term this carrot “incontinent” - and it certainly looks like it needs to GO…

Thank you Tony and Cathy!

Enjoy.
