Some people see an 18-inch cassava and say, “Wow. I can use that to make a cake that will feed my family of four.” Apparently other people — like this 55-year-old Costa Rican man, for example — see an 18-inch cassava and say, “Wow. I’ve got to shove that thing up my ass.”
Well, according to Metro, surgeons at San Juan de Dios Hospital recently had the task of removing said cassava from the man’s rectum after it became lodged when one of the two condoms he put on the “veggie dildo” broke off inside of him.
Take a look at it, but heads up: this is pretty gross. You’ve been warned.

The man reached out to doctors because he feared that he would “rupture his intestines” if he tried to pull out the cassava without the help of lube that the condoms would have provided. They were able to successfully remove the vegetable and said the man has fully recovered from his mishap.
Hey, here’s to hoping he goes with something safer like a carrot next time.
If you have a strong stomach, and don’t easily faint, you can watch video of the surgery here. But as a heads up, it is EXTREMELY GRAPHIC. Like, wow. I’m not joking.
