Yum! Yum! Happy Face Potato

Today’s illusion is another submission from the Mighty Optical Illusions Facebook page. Thanks to Ruben for this one!

It’s not uncommon for people to see illusions in their food, especially faces. History is full of people who have claimed to see religious figures in their meals. Jesus, for instance, has been spotted in everything from grilled cheese sandwiches to pancakes to pierogis. Sometimes, though, the food illusions are a little simpler…like this happy face potato!

This little happy face potato is just grinning away, oblivious to everything around him! Honestly, though, I can’t imagine why he’s so happy in the first place. Does he not notice the hot deep fryers behind him? Is he unaware of his sizzling fate?

Maybe this little happy face potato was so cute that he was spared. Maybe the fry cook had a heart and decided not to chop him up and fry him into delicious greasy sticks of crunchy potato goodness. You think…?

Yeah, me neither. It’s just nice to imagine a story with a happy ending from time to time. So, goodbye happy face potato! I’m sure you’ll make a tasty treat for some lucky diner.
