This game is an ode to the quirky fruits and unique vegetables. Anyone who has ever worked in the garden knows: Nature does not produce uniformity.
Each game consists of 24 different sets of cards. Each set consists of the same kind (for example an eggplant) but two differently looking veggies or fruit. The background colours of each set are the same. This way we emphasize the different appearances of our Quirky Carrots.
Quirky Carrots | Toffe Peren is a project by Annette Behrens and Carina Hesper.
Their mission is to change the perception concerning quirky fruits and vegetables. Often referred to as ‘misfits’, we don’t think they are!
We want to raise awareness and show people more of the natural ways in which our foods can grow and inform them about food waste.
The game is designed by Jelle F. Post and printed by printing company Tienkamp in Groningen. The production is in The Netherlands, to ensure good working conditions and a process that is as environmentally friendly as possible.

Carina’s and Annette’s mission is to change the perception concerning quirky fruits and vegetables. Often referred to as ‘misfits’, they don’t think they are! They want to raise awareness and show people more of the natural ways in which our foods can grow and inform them about food waste. They did so with the means of photography creating beautiful images of our Quirky Carrots, Toffe Peren, Tolle Knolle.
With the Quirky Carrots, they want to become a visual voice in the debate on food waste.
Tolle Knolle ist ein außgewöhnliches Memo-Spiel für Kinder und Erwachsene. Im Fokus stehen hier verrückte Früchte und besondere Gemüse mit eigensinnigen Formen.
Oft aussortiert von der Lebensmittelindustrie sind sie hier die farbenfrohen Stars.
Dieses Spiel ist den verrückten Früchten und dem besonderen Gemüse gewidmet. Jede Gärtnerin und jeder Gärtner weiß: In der Natur ist alles einzigartig. Im heimischen Garten genauso wie im professionellen Obst- und Gemüsebau. Jahrelang waren Obst- und Gemüsebauern strengen Vorschriften unterworfen. Ihre Ernte musste dem Standard entsprechen. Die Produkte im Laden hatten gleich groß und in Form und Farbe quasi identisch zu sein. Zu groß, zu klein, krumm, unförmig oder gesprenkelt? Dann endete das Obst und Gemüse als Tierfutter, in der Biogasanlage oder auf der Mülldeponie – statt in den Läden.
Viele dieser überflüssigen Verordnungen sind nun endlich Geschichte. Aber ein Drittel unseres Essens wandert immer noch in die Tonne.
Dieses Spiel besteht aus 24 Obst- und Gemüsepaaren. Finde das passende Bild. Aber aufgepasst: Genau hinschauen heißt die Devise! Jedes Bild steht für sich, kein Paar ist genau gleich.
Tolle Knolle wird mit planzlicher gedruckt und ist umweltfreundlich in den Niederlanden produziert.
Memory
Along we our own products we have the memory game available in 3 languages. The game challenges kinds and adults to make pairs of vegetables that not necessary look the same and celebrates diversity.
Book
We are also expecting a Quirky Carrot book for young children this summer.
