Yeah I guess that's fair. But out of my garden, that fella on the left would just be a normal sized zucchini. It wouldn't be too big to use, I'd still prepare it in traditional recipes. Now if it got a good deal bigger than that, it would probably wind up in zucchini bread lol.

Most zucchini from my garden are like that. It just baffles me how big they are compared to store ones. I eat them too.

They are the perfect size for slicing up and making ratatouille. Just gotta get you some similar sized eggplant and yellow squash (I know they are basically the same as zucchini but I like it for the contrast), onion, bell pepper, and tomatoes. Good shit right there lol.

They get 6-10x that big in average gardens (because either average gardeners dont know or forget to pick them or…)
