Mum finds bizarre 'baby seal' in her Easter Sunday dinner

A mum did d a "double take" when she spotted the shape of a seal pup in her potato peelings whilst prepping lunch.

Welsh woman Corinne Dolman, 40, was peeling spuds for her family's dinner on Easter Sunday when she spotted the uncanny resemblance, reports Wales Online. Corinne, a home bakery business owner, said: "It was Easter Sunday I was up early prepping for Easter lunch before the kids got up - as I was still half asleep I did do a double take as I noticed it on the pile.

She said: "I actually took the photo to show my husband as it made me laugh how much it looked like a seal and I do like a bit of nonsense.

"The potatoes were from Tesco in Bedworth and were destined to be roasties. It would have been more apt for Jesus to appear in my Easter spuds."

The mum has since shared the unusual photo on Facebook to "raise a smile or two". The post has so far racked up a huge 97,000 reactions and over 2,000 comments.

One person commented: "I was scrolling and it stopped me in my tracks. I had to zoom in... wow!"

Another suggested Corrine "preserve" the peeling as it was "so cute".
