  1. over time this might affect our collective consciousness in regards to the purpose & function of the eggplant; and

  2. can we please just get a straightforward penis emoji already?? Half the human population has a penis attached to their bodies anyway, why are we still so prude about incorporating actual penises into mainstream vernacular & daily life?

What I don’t get is that a dick the size or shape of an eggplant would just not work, for anything.

There are lots of dick-shaped, dick-sized eggplants. Chinese eggplants and Japanese eggplants are pretty phallic, similar to cucumbers or zucchini in size/shape.

Good point. I’ve also had that subconscious thought. I’m going to add that as my point number 3.

The colour is a little unusual as well.

Japanese ones are a lot thinner.

Carrots on the other hand are the opposite, being much thicker than the ones in the US
