I was once asked out via pomegranate.
This guy had a box of pomegranates and I saw him drawing on one with a permanent marker. He gave it to me and it had a drawing of a heart. I thanked him and set it aside to continue what I was doing. After a few minutes I noticed that he kept looking back at me, getting increasingly sad looks on his face. When he wasn't looking, I turned the pomegranate and saw that he had written, "Will you date me?" on the other side. Unfortunately I said yes, and ended up dating the guy for a year.
