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

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.

This picture has been sent in by Chloe Metcalfe. Says Chloe.

“I think My mum got it from Tesco’s, and I think it was organic, that’s about all I know about it.”

Yes, Chloe, I think “organic” is the word for this fine willy and legs carrot combo. A little blurry – yes – but still clear enough for us to enjoy…

Thank you Chloe!

Thank you to Murren Tullett for our second smashing picture of a Yam which looks like a girl’s front bottom.

“Found by a friend that works at Sainsbury’s. ‘Gave us hours of amusement and joke material.”

Murren, I’m delighted to discover that the world of work has not changed since I left it. Thank you.

Here it is!

Many thanks for another fine submission of a Rabbit-a-like carrot, in this instance, from Graham Thomas, of Oldham here in good old Blighty.

Says Graham:

“I pulled this carrot this morning (Sat 3rd November 2007) from my vegetable patch here in the UK (Oldham) and thought it either looks like a finger and thumb, or perhaps a women’s vibrator!”

It certainly does.

Thank you Graham…

A splendid set of pictures here from John at the World Carrot Museum.

This brave lady loves carrots so much she has had some carroty tattoos done. Ouch. That lot must have smarted. Definitely taking her love of carrots to the call of duty and beyond…

What more can I say?

Thank you John. Everyone else… Enjoy!

My thanks to John who, being the curator and all, has brought the smashing “World Carrot Museum” to my attention.

This site contains anything – and I mean anything – you could ever want to know about carrots (but be afraid to ask) in depth and in detail! It even includes a page about carrot musicians… with links to their websites where you can see and hear carrots being played. The vegetable orchestra is, naturally, there in all its glory, along with this little gem…

And these… The Wyld Men and if you like the sound of playing with your food, not forgetting this site, www.playyourfood.com where the Wyld Men explain how you can make your own vegetable instruments. As somebody who used to end their stand up routine with “Close Down” – the national anthem played on a make up remover bottle – I can kind of relate to this.

Excellent job, John. Thank you for making your presence known as well as pointing us to all these fabulous links.

Click here to pay the carrot museum a visit.

Enjoy

My cringing apologies to Ron Hoggan who submitted this smashing picture on 15 of October, I hope my tardiness will not be taken amiss.

Here is another fine carrot with a willy to grow to our ever growing Rude Carrot Club. Nicely picked out on the green background, too. Top work there, Ron.

Thank you.

Enjoy.

Two splendid pictures from Mark Bacola of another well endowed carrot. Definitely a boy this one and very possibly a cross dresser. In the first picture it looks remarkably as if the end of one “leg” is sporting a carroty stiletto… Hmm…

Says Mark

“Imagine my surprise when I yanked this bad boy out of the ground. Perhaps it was the fertilizer. I ask women if they’d like to see my carrot, no, really; they never believe me.

“How do I preserve this gem for posterity?”

Well, Mark, I suggest pickling it… Readers, help Mark out here, how can he preserve his bad-arse carrot for ever?

Mark’s carrot with a big one…

Mark’s carrot with a big one, close up!

Thank you to Karen for today’s submission. This is definitely the Barry White of the vegetable world, a true luuuurve carrot…

Says Karen.

“I expect all the female carrots are sad that we pulled this ‘big boy’ up!”

I should think they are… never mind, we are happy!

Thank you Karen.

Big boy carrot, Picture 1. Note the end… eeek!

Big boy carrot picture two…

Risto, I hope this makes up for yesterday’s sausage aberration…

Phnark!

I know this isn’t a vegetable so purists will chide me but how can I resist posting a sausage which so readily and so naturally resembles a man-python?

Enjoy!

I am always delighted when my readers join in and today, someone has done just that!

We have Risto Talas to thank for this fine photograph of a pair of love carrots.

“Mother nature has taught my carrots to do the tango.” Says Risto.

Well… they’re certainly doing something!

Thank you for your submission…

Here are the first pair of love carrots to occur this year. Yes, even in the cold, in polytunnels, the carrots are getting it on…

And in detail…

Two sets in two weeks. Mmm. Perhaps phtographing them on the same patch of grass was unwise and yet… I appreciate continuity.

It seems only right that the first post on this blog should depict the original, love carrots so here they are, the way they were pulled out of the ground.

Enjoy.
