Things Japanese do with their food

From sgforums, look what the Japanese did with their food~


This specially created human-faced watermelon which looks rather cute is used as an interior decoration and no, it is not made of plastic, it is the real thing. Priced between 50,000 yen ($420) to 80,000 yen ($672), it is mostly purchased by restaurants which put it up on display.


These star and love shaped cucumbers look lovely too.


Three tomatoes that have grown into a shape resembling a rabbit’s head have emerged as a hit here after popping up in the garden of a local resident.

The tomato figure appeared in the home garden of a 75-year-old resident in Buzen, and soon became the talk of local residents.

The part resembling the face measures about 5 centimeters in diameter, and the ears are 3-4 centimeters long each. The 75-year-old resident harvested it at the end of July, and her daughter-in-law kept it in a refrigerator at her office.

Every day, local residents have taken photographs of the “rabbit tomato” and commented on how cute it looks. For now, it looks unlikely to end up on anyone’s dinner plate.
