There are many strange things and sightings that originate from Asian shores and these creepy baby pears are one of them. They are not miniature pears. Instead, they are pears shaped like baby dolls. Created to look like sleeping human babies when they are still attached to trees, these creepy baby pears would make a weird gift for just about anyone.
Found at a supermarket in Beijing, China, these creepy baby pears were a buzz topic for many Japanese this past weekend. Although retailing as happy/joyful doll pears in the supermarket, foreign customers had other comments according to Rocket News 24, including, "Farming has really come a long way" and "How on earth do you go about peeling them!?"
