- 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.
- Title: “Foot Strip”
- Submitted by: Jimmy C. (Texas)
- Jimmy's son found this in an order of Popeye's chicken. Jimmy took the photo right before his brave son munched it down. Before anyone suggests a lawsuit, he reports that it was all meat. Even so... I'll quote Jimmy: "Aauuugghh!"
- 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.
- Title: “Swan Gourd”
- Media: Squash. Fairytale Magic.
- Submitted by: Lynne T.
- Legend has it that this beautiful swan was once just an ugly gourd.

- Title: “Ze Onions of Love”
- Media: Onions. Love. Oil. High Heat.

- Title: “Pregnant Pepper”
- Media: Momma Pepper. Baby Peppers
- Submitted by: Heather S.
- Heather writes: "After I cut the top off of the seemingly normal pepper, I noticed a tiny baby pepper nestled all snugly in it's peppery womb. Upon removing the poor thing, I noticed that it was not one baby, but two- conjoined twin baby peppers. This whole thing was too traumatizing for me, and I couldn't bring myself to eat the mamma pepper or the baby peppers. To date, the pappa pepper has not been identified." Twin baby peppers! Mazel tov!

- Submitted by: Luke (Seattle, WA)

- Title: “Happily Oblivious Ice Cream”
- Media: Ice Cream. Misunderstanding.
- Submitted by: Jennifer R.
