Heart Shapped Cucumbers - Neatorama

These cucumber growing molds from Japan are so fun! They would be great for bento boxes or in salads and sushi. I bet you could also use them for zucchini. I want one!

Nothing says 'I love you' like a water based gourd vegetable.

I believe that Japanese do square watermelons as well.

Now I can love my cucumber and it can love me back

The molds are not hard to make . . plexiglass tube and some heat. Immature cukes or zukes are coaxed into the tube and left to expand to grow and fill the void. Whole thing is "picked" and the veggie is pushed out the end and sliced.

At WDW restaurants, they're shaped like Mickey's famous "profile".

lol @ Joyce. "Now I can love my cucumber and it can love me back"

I understand that some women (and men I guess) already do that with normal cucumbers.
