A farmer got more than he bargained for when he harvested a sweet potato shaped like a woman's curvaceous backside.

Ben Fletch couldn't believe his eyes when he pulled out the starchy crop from the soil at his farm in Kent last week and was faced with what appeared to be a lady bending over.

He said: ''It was hilarious! Obviously it looks like a lady bending over. It did make me chuckle. I showed my family and they loved it - we were all laughing for quite a while.''

Although he found the frisky find hilarious, he refused to eat the cheeky crop and, instead, threw it into the bin.

He explained to the Daily Mail newspaper: ''It's a sweet potato that I grew in my private field.

''It is only recently that we were able to grow sweet potatoes here in the UK so it's very cool for me.

''We threw it away though as I didn't want to have to cook it.''
