A passenger was stopped at Birmingham Airport after they tried to smuggle a 4-foot squash and other goods.

Customs officers and the airport seized the giant squash from the passenger who was trying to smuggle it from Asia into Britain. The vegetable weighed a whopping 4 stone or 56 pounds and was apprehended by environmental health officials, the Daily Mail reports.

The ginormous squash wasn't the only item that was tried to be smuggled into the country. The smugglers were also caught sneaking in 175 pounds of fish and 94,000 cigarettes from Bangladesh.

"The rather unusual giant squash was found illegally imported at Birmingham Airport by our environmental health food safety team," a spokesman for Solihull Council said according to the Daily Mail. "It is a bit of a rare find, as you can imagine we do get cigarettes a lot, but not a squash, especially not one of this size."

"It is quite a funny picture of the environmental health worker next to it as it is almost the same size as her. As you can imagine, it was extremely heavy and we estimated it weighed up to 60lbs which is clearly abnormal for a vegetable," the spokesman added.  "I doubt we will find another one of these but you never know what people will try and get through. The item has now been seized."

In addition to the squash, the fish and the cigarettes, there was also 2,000 pounds of betel leaves in the illegal haul. Betel leaves are a mild stimulant that is popular on the Indian sub-continent. It is commonly chewed or smoked. While the leaves are common, they are temporarily banned by the European Union because there is a concern that they may be carrying salmonella.

"Many of the boxes of leaves were mislabeled or packed at the rear of the consignment," the council spokesman said. "Some of the leaves have been sent to a laboratory for analysis."
