Once there was a whole box of carrots at my local food co-op that got rejected from being made available to sale for the public because they were worried that the public would be offended by the excessively phallic shape of said carrots.
(I don't know how to say that I think they just wanted to keep 'em for the entertainment value without it sounding like I mean something I don't.)
Ha! I've managed to unconsciously pick up so many tomatoes with phallic protrusions that I've almost stopped noticing, and just resigned myself to being a vegetable perv. On the other hand, I've picked up so many heart-shaped potatoes that I must be equally sensitive and romantic. Right?
