“Cornman” was first spotted in May 2012 pulling an ear of corn around with him on a leash. People found it so intriguing that they started sharing pics of him online and few days ago, “Cornman” (whose real name is Masahiko Naganuma) appeared on Japanese TV to share his story. He told viewers that he was inspired to walk fresh produce after seeing a man doing the same thing in 2006 and he has kept up the habit ever since; even naming the radishes, carrots, cauliflowers etc that he walks before eventually cooking and eating them.
