As part of his ongoing alternative energy photographs using fruit, vegetables, and other objects, Caleb powered this LED light held in the center of these orange slices. All the electricity comes from the orange itself…the nails inserted into the wedges react with the citric acid within them, and copper wires direct the generated power through the light.

Unfortunately, the light generated was so dim this particular photograph required a 14 hour exposure.

Practice makes perfect, and this fellow hopes to break a world record throwing playing cards with vegetable-slicing speed and accuracy.

The 49-year-old said: “I am always looking for something new and with Christmas approaching Brussels sprouts immediately popped into my mind.

Nothing new here, I’ve been handing out chocolate covered sprouts to trick or treaters on Halloween for years. I got a better idea… Try dipping them in vegemite and then rolling in coconut, now that’s a delicacy!

Scott Amron has come up with a much better alternative with his vanishing Fruitwash Labels that dissolve into an organic, fruit-cleansing produce wash that helps remove wax, pesticides, dirt and bacteria (Washing / rubbing with water triggers the turn).

The labels are also as practical as their non-dissolving counterparts, displaying market Price Look-Up (PLU) codes and origin.

If you’re looking for an investment opportunity, Amron is currently selling a 10% stake in the Fruitwash Label Intellectual Property

Veggie Yoda has probably shriveled more than usual by now, but thanks to the power of photography, he’ll be with us, always. And he’ll be reminding you to eat your vegetables.

Check out some of Chef Oki’s awesome work below.

This is one way to get people to start eating their veggies again.
