你見(jiàn)過(guò)形似佛像的梨么？還有五角星形黃瓜、方形西瓜、骷髏頭南瓜。據(jù)報(bào)道，江蘇蘇州一家瓜果模具公司生產(chǎn)的模具可以為各種瓜果“塑形”，只要將作物莖干放在各種的模具中，就能長(zhǎng)出相應(yīng)形狀的果實(shí)，有的模具甚至還能印字，比如在心形蘋(píng)果上印上“l(fā)ove”。

These ingenious moulds grow fruit and veg into bizarre shapes - including little Buddha pears and square watermelons.

The moulds work by farmers placing them over the stems of growing produce and then allowing the fruit and veg to slowly fill them as they develop.
這些模具的使用方法是：農(nóng)民將模具安裝在生長(zhǎng)期的作物莖干上，然后讓果蔬生長(zhǎng)，慢慢填滿(mǎn)模具。
