  New Jersey Vegetable Monster - Encyclopedia, History, Geography and Biography
New Jersey Vegetable Monster is an expression used by cryptozoologists and other researchers of anomalous phenomena and the paranormal to describe a sighting or incident that has exceptionally poor evidential support.
According to psychologist Leonard George, the term originated with a sighting reported by a single drunken witness, who claimed to have observed a humanoid resembling a giant stalk of broccoli.
The original sighting, which allegedly occurred in the New Jersey Pine Barrens, was likely attributable to a case of delirium tremens.

While many cryptozoologists strive for legitimacy and many are respected scientists in other fields, and though discoveries of previously unknown animals are often subject to great attention, cryptozoology per se has never been fully embraced by the scientific community, and one cannot obtain a cryptozoological degree from any college or university.
Also cited is the 2003 discovery of the remains of Homo floresiensis, a descendent of Homo erectus which took the anthropological community completely by surprise.
The fact that myths of a strikingly similar creature, called Ebu Gogo by the local people, have persisted until as late as the 19th Century has given the field of study new credibility from the rest of the scientific community.

In traversing New Jersey from north west to south east, we pass over rocks and soils which have been deposited by an ocean whose coast has constantly moved toward the south east, until its position has become that now forming the boundaries of the State.
