A couple in Brazil were shocked to discover a giant 8kg potato in their vegetable patch.

Even stranger, the spud was in the shape of a human foot.

Marli and Paulo Ciquinel found the huge 'foot' at the back of their house in the town of Meleiro in the state of Santa Cantarina.

It includes realistic looking toes that descend in height order and roots that resemble hair.

Speaking to the media, Marli said:

"We have never seen anything like it. I was a little bit scared when we harvested that potato."

The couple claim they don't have any plans to eat the spud:

"Perhaps, we can put it on display if anyone would like to see it."
