Giant veggies are big everywhere that gardening is big. One often forgets that gardening ranks as the #1 hobby worldwide when such polls are taken-- I think because gardening enthusiasts are generally quiet and introspective and rarely go on shooting rampages. Growing monstrous vegetables is kinda the horticulturist's version of getting wild and crazy. Mainly, though, giant veggies are hideous symbols of the triumph of petrochemical fertilizers. One day our descendents will look back and think us mad for such arrogant waste. But for now, golly gee, aren't those gargantuan pumpkins freakish?
