Careful! That carrot will poke your eye out!

I saw this carrot in the store today. I'd never seen a carrot with two points so I had to buy it. Don't know what happened to it to make it grow like this. All I know is that trying to eat it was a big mistake. Truly the world's most dangerous vegetable.

  2. Really? didn't see that never before? it is a very common thing but the sellers of carrots only sell the normal ones. They thing that genetic monsters usually are not attractive or not "trustfully" (does it exist? jajaja) to people.

  5. Oh, well, here in Texas all our carrots look like that.

    Ok, just kidding. I like how the veggie that's good for your eyesight looks like it's taking out your eye. Nice.

  7. I thought carrots were meant to help you see in the dark not blind you. Be careful my friend...as I always say the 5 fruit and veg a day thing is just a government plot, for what I'm not yet sure, only time will tell!

  11. Several years ago, I worked at a camp in Canada where we got these bulk shipments of veggies... Our carrots were of a normal length, but 3-4 inches in diameter. Seriously! Really hard to reconcile mentally, and usually I ended up gagging when I thought about it too hard. (We'd slice them into cute little carrot sticks so that the campers never knew the difference.)

  12. You could poke both eyes out at once with that! Deadly!

    ReplyDelete
  13. Maybe it's a secret water finding stick. I could think of another use for it, but it would be crass....
    Next time, wera safety google!

  14. Next on LOST....

    The theorists would really puzzle over that picture. Mutant plants on the island? Nuclear testing?

  15. I think it's when they hit something like hard patch of dirt or a rock and go uh oh have to get around that.. and split. At least mine that I tried to grow came out like that all the time.

  16. 13 days. 13 days we wait. And you give us a two-pointed carrot.

    I love you really, Jorge.

  23. Jorge,

    You have to watch out for those carrots. A first you think its giving you the peace sign, and in reality its giving you the European 'up yours'. I wouldn't be surprised if it's French. Arrogant and haughty those francophone carrots.

  28. I always told my parents that vegetables are not good for you. You have finally proven my point! I am forwarding your post to my elderly father with a big "I TOLD YA SO!" (35 years later, I win!!!)
    Too bad this carrot wasn't around when I needed it... LOL

  31. Thanks for the laugh Jorge! Your wit is what I love about your blog.

    ReplyDelete
  32. I'm stunned. I think if I didn't know you were on a very successful tv show, I would think you had way too much time on your hands.

    But I still love to read.

  33. ckalt! that's terrible

    now I forgot what I was going to say...

    ReplyDelete
  34. That looks like a chicken foot. You should get it together with the pork belly (and nipple) you got, and create some sort of Frankenstein monster animal thingy.

    All I could think of was "You'll shoot your eye out" from A Christmas Story

  36. Sooner or later, somebody always puts an eye out.

    Hey Bonni, if you read this I might be able to explain the giant carrot. Here in Nova Scotia there are farmers who grow their carrots in a sort of peat bog area. The ground is rich in natural nutrients and there's lots of water so the carrots grow huge. One carrot will supply the side veggie dish for a family of 5. I love them because it means much less peeling of veggies in food preparation. Usually the odd shaped ones get sorted out and other farmers buy them to feed their cattle. Cows don't have the same problem with eye-pokage when eating carrots as some people do. ;-)

  39. Hello Jorge,
    Is a girl Italian sfegatata fan of Lost. You are formidable.
    If you want to explain what has happened to the carrot of photos, live in the country and I often cultivate. Well, simply grew underground divided by a root balled that has separated the two roots, and so has become so strange.
    Congratulations on your blog, I know very little English but I find it really amazing.
    See you soon.
    Sara.

  42. I remember growing up we had a garden and every once in awile we would get carrots or other produce like that. I have no idea how it happened.
