A street vendor in Hubei, China, is hawking a curious looking polygonum root for 1,200 yuan ($185).
According to Chinese media outlets, the root looks like it has a head, limbs and even female body parts. It weighs eight pounds and measures 40cm in height. It even comes with a head of hair, thanks to its winding roots.

The street vendor and his head-turning produce has attracted plenty of attention, but no interested buyers have taken him up on his offer yet.
It's not stated what are the medicinal or health benefits of consuming this root.
