Unique square watermelons from Japan

If you ask any child "What shape is a watermelon?", he will definitely say round. The only exceptions are Japanese children, as it is in Japan grow and sell watermelons square shape for many years.



Watermelons this form was created by farmers for ease of warehousing and storage. It's not GMO and conventional varieties of watermelons, which are placed in a glass cubic form in a period when the berry ripens.



The only difference between a normal watermelon and square is its cost. For such a cubic berry You need to pay from 80$. Alas, because of its high prices Japanese watermelons are unlikely to ever appear here. We can only hope for their domestic agronomists and their desire to experiment.
