Normally, watermelon has shape like ball. On television this morning, I was saw watermelon as cube. We can find this anomaly shape of watermelon in Japan. Have you seen watermelon like this? Maybe the price of watermelon like cube so expensive.

I have not actually seen this in person, but i received an email several months ago about it. I think it is really innovative. I am unsure of the price, but I do know that they are grown in special boxes that help them obtain the cube shape. This supposedly came about to help keep watermelons standing still on a refrigerator shelf.

Oh I have seen pictures of these over the years. They were originally created in that fashion to save precious growing space as well as grocery shelf space. Weird to think that you can grow a melon in a crate. Have a wonderful day and happy mylotting!
