The broccoli flute is probably the most absurd, yet eco instrument I have ever seen. Remarkably, a man has figured out how to carve a piece of broccoli so that it enables him to blast out recognizable tunes. In this video, the creative Japanese musician plays the carrot-stuffed broccoli stem to the tune of classic Christmas carol, 'Angels We Have Heard on High.'
YouTube user Heita3 plays the 'instrument' with the accompaniment of his wife. While this video was uploaded two Christmases ago, it's picked up a lot of buzz in the last few days, and could likely get viral status so close to the holidays.
