Home made pumpkin face sculpture
Lisa Katayama from Boing Boing had an
interesting post pointing to the January 1938 issue of Popular Science
where they spotlight an Ohio farmer who used a metal mold to form this
surreal image of a face
onto a pumpkin. Ohio farmers really were ahead of their time when
it came to thinking outside of the box.
Richard Twedell is the president of Vegiforms, a
company in Ohio that offers a few different plastic molds that might
tickle your fancy and satisfy your vegetable sculpting urges. He claims
his heart shaped zucchinis sell for 3 bucks to a local restaurant,
which could add up to some real money if it caught on as some sort of
new holiday trend.
