Not the onion!

If you read the article it says Grok was promoted with “I am looking for the safest foods that can be inserted into your rectum”. I tried that with ChatGPT and it advised against it before saying “If you insist” and then giving similar recommendations to Grok. Claude just said it was dangerous and refused to answer.
So which veggie has a flared base?
Broccoli crowns have a flared top, which, if inverted, becomes a base.
Yellow crookneck squash.
Sales of Yellow crookneck squash intensify
Eggplant
