A gardener and grandfather in England made a startling discovery this weekend. While digging in his vegetable patch, he found this:Wait a minute, have you been secretly ingesting some performance enhancing drugs, Mr. Carrot? Oh you would never do that? You are not the A-Rod of the root vegetable family?
The man ran into his house and showed his three grandchildren. He decided to have a contest in which they had to guess what this carrot resembled.
Wait, I want to be in that contest. I guess: Brock Lesnar. No? Then what about Lou Ferrigno? Wrong again? Just kidding sir. I knew all along it was Snookie from Jersey Shore.
Wait. What? Your grandkids won because each of them made the correct guess? Oh, they said Buzz Lightyear? Alright. Considering that I have seen Buzz Lightyear more in the past year than in three previous decades, I should have made that connection. (But I am still giving Snookie as my final answer.)
PS: No real New Jerseyans were hurt OR taken advantage of in the making of this vegetable.
that is too cool and I agree that looks like Buzz
ReplyDeleteWhenever there are funny shaped vegetable stories in the press, they always seem to be British!! This one is pretty impressive though, my children would be thrilled if I brought that home from the supermarket :)
ReplyDeleteI only know Snooki from photos in the gossip mags - thankfully - but even I can see the resemblance :)
That is pretty impressive, I had a potato that looks like my Mum's face before but nothing this impressive.
ReplyDeleteI'll need to pay more attention to the veggies in my garden this year. I've never seen Jersey Shore but I'll trust that your opinion in accurate!
That's hilarious. It looks like a one eyed monster to me.. the stem part being the eye.
ReplyDeleteThat is one messed up carrot! Makes me want to rethink my veggie intake and what veggies actually comprise it.
ReplyDeleteHowever, do you think that if I ate this, it's mean veggie muscles would be able to kick the fat cells right out of my existence? Just saying...
Now that's pretty cool. I wonder what it would have grown into if they had left it in the ground?
ReplyDeletePolitician?
Its some sort of vegetable plot to keep you and Mr Mac from enjoying yourselves... just thinking outside the bedroom door an orange buzz lightyear is saying (over and over) "To infinity and beyond!" which is mathematically impossible.
ReplyDeletea Buzz Carrot. Kewl!
ReplyDeleteIt reminds me of the meatheads who work out in the weights section of my gym and grunt and moan whilst lifting weights twice their size. So....ewwww.
ReplyDeleteBest,

He needs a head and Buzz's would work well on him....either that or just a plain paper bag....
ReplyDeleteThat's one weird-looking carrot!
ReplyDeleteHe could probably sell it on ebay for a small fortune!
Very funny. I'd say Buzz Lightyear too. xx
ReplyDeleteTransformer!
ReplyDeleteThat a nine-carrot vegetable!
ReplyDeleteThat carrot's been "juicing" for sure. How bizarre is that thing?
ReplyDeleteWonder how much that would go for on ebay? I'll go with the Buzz look alike!
ReplyDelete<><
i think that is the most amazing carrot i have ever seen...
ReplyDeleteMickey Rourke?
ReplyDeleteActually I think I can see a photo of the Virgin Mary in it!!!!
ReplyDeleteMary
I saw that picture and had to laugh! Then I read your post and laughed even harder!!
ReplyDeleteWe always get some unusual carrots every year too.
ReplyDeleteSome of them cannot be shown on a family blog.
Robocarrot...that is creepy!
ReplyDeleteThat's freaky... Also, if you're interested, there's someone selling a potato shaped like Mickey Mouse's head on Ebay. Tragic...
ReplyDeleteBwhaha. That is too funny!
ReplyDeleteThat carrot sure would be intimidating to eat....
ReplyDeleteHaha, why don't my carrots ever come out looking that awesome!?
ReplyDeleteSingle Dad Laughing
that's impressive...and so buzz like :)
ReplyDeletethat's impressive...and so buzz like :)
ReplyDeleteThat is freaky weird.
ReplyDeleteI don't know why, but that is the ugliest carrot EVER and repulses me.
ReplyDeleteHow odd that something so good for me makes me want to puke by just looking at it.
To ranch dip and beyond!
ReplyDeletewow that carrot looks really strong, too strong i wouldn't dare to eat it..
ReplyDeleteLOL, it really does look like Buzz. That's one wacked-out carrot.
ReplyDeleteI suspect someone has been a bit heavy-handed with the old fertilizer.
ReplyDeleteTo me, it looks like an (unfortunately) healthier version of the Pillsbury Dough Boy. But I might just be projecting.
Snooki, for sure! lol!
ReplyDeleteThat is amazing. I would have to preserve that carrot somehow and keep it. To infinity and beyond!
ReplyDeleteBUZZ!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteLOL...I will be laughing at inappropriate times for days about that picture. :)
I also see a bit of the Michelin Man in there....that is SOME hunk of carrot!
