  • Media: Fruity Pebble. A Fear Unknown to Most.
  • Submitted by: Kelly R.
  • Just when you thought it was safe to consume breakfast cereal, Kelly finds THIS terrifying creature amid an otherwise innocent bowl of Fruity Pebbles. Don't look at this image for too long. It will haunt your dreams.

Muffin Face

  • Title: “Muffin Face!”
  • Media: Member of the Muffin Face Family
  • Submitted by: Jooooooo
  • This smiling muffin comes from a family of 8; apparently all of which shared this hopeful grin. You get one guess what happened to the other 7 before this photo was taken.

frustrated_pepper.jpg

  • Title: “Frustrated Gold-Mining Pepper”
  • Media: Pepper. Frustration at lack of gold.
  • Submitted by: Ara P.
  • Ara referred to this as a "habanero chile fist," but (please work with me here), I am certain that if I had a great-grandfather who was a gold miner who then got angry at not finding any gold in the claim he just bought from a local businessman, this is a pepper-based representation of the face he'd make.

pan_face.jpg

  • Title: “Pan Face”
  • Media: Oil. Pan. Painful Memories.
  • Submitted by: Nancy & Simon H.
  • Is this really a "Food Anomaly"? No, probably not. But, I once dropped a cast iron pan onto my face & made an expression very much like the one depicted here in oil. That's worth something, I guess.

Happy Eggs

  • Title: “‘I Won’t Cure Your Hangover’ Egg”
  • Media: Egg. Heat. Hope.
  • Submitted by: Nick P.
  • Nick P. awoke with a hangover & the belief that a fried egg would provide a cure. From the pan, Nick found this face mockingly smiling a warning that no such cure was in sight. The egg, it turns out, was correct.

peppermint skull

  • Title: “Peppermint Candy Skull”
  • Media: Small Candy-based creature. Sans everything but a skull.
  • Submitted by: Theresa
  • A fine dinner. A sweet mint to cleanse the palate. Something awry. Was it a mint at all? Or has she half-consumed a tiny, candy creature -- leaving only a skull as evidence of its remains?

Zombie Coconut

  • Title: “Undead Coconut”
  • Media: Coconut Corpse. Reanimation.
  • Submitted by: Fawn
  • Fawn discovered the sunken eyes of this coconut staring at her after she drained the coconut's juice. She said it was a "ghost coconut," but my professional resources have determined it is more assuredly a ZOMBIE COCONUT.

Devil Tomato

  • Title: “Devil Tomato”
  • Media: Garden-variety Tomato. Underworld-variety Evil.
  • Submitted by: Carol B.
  • Carol claims that this tomato "came from the vine from hell!" Well, Carol, allow me to bestow this sage advice upon you, free of charge: if, indeed, you are holding the offspring of a Hell-borne vine, it is not considered wise to mock it by painting on a comical, cat-like face. Just a thought. Good luck, Carol, good luck.
