Rabbit-Shaped Tomato A Hit In Kyushu
Weird news from Mainichi:
BUZEN, Fukuoka — Three tomatoes that have grown into a shape resembling a rabbit’s head have emerged as a hit here after popping up in the garden of a local resident.
The tomato figure appeared in the home garden of a 75-year-old resident in Buzen, and soon became the talk of local residents.
The part resembling the face measures about 5 centimeters in diameter, and the ears are 3-4 centimeters long each. The 75-year-old resident harvested it at the end of July, and her daughter-in-law kept it in a refrigerator at her office.
Every day, local residents have taken photographs of the “rabbit tomato” and commented on how cute it looks. For now, it looks unlikely to end up on anyone’s dinner plate.
They should probably sell that tomato up on Yahoo Auctions before it rots…

The Japanese seem to get quite excited about unusually shaped vegetables (Though, of course the Tomato isn’t a vegetable, it is in fact an Insect
).
There was a story a little while back about a cucumber with a leaf growing out of it. OMFG! A Leaf! Seems a strange thing for a nation to get excited about.
And then there is that whole thing about cube shaped watermellons…..
