More funny veggie pics!

New photo: This is the “Gonzo” tomato grown by my colleague, Amanda Codispoti. Weird-lookin’, huh?

Two readers have sent in pictures of crazy-looking veggies they’ve picked from their gardens. The first comes from reader Alan Downie, who titled his email “Pair of cucumber clogs.” He added, “For your consideration, please accept my freaky vegetable photos.  That’s the last time I order cucumber seeds direct from Holland.” Ha!

And this next photo comes from reader Bill N., who wrote: “Just picked this suggestive tomato. Should I get pants to fit?” I’ll tell ya, I’d just slice that baby and eat it, Bill. Bottoms up!
