    oh japan you never stop to amaze me i knew you had tech advances but square watermelon!!! wow just wow it is so convenient. is it pricey? yes the watermellons are square but at 100 usd a pop is it worth it? Cube watermelons were intended to fit more compactly in fridges and be able to be cut more easily. as you cant roll a cube well you can thats why we have dice but its a hell of a lot harder to do.

    the idea what thought up in the head of a graphic designer by the name of Tomoyuki Ono in 1978.He presented the watermelons in a gallery in Ginza, Tokyo. He also applied for and received a patent in the United States

    how do they get that cube shape you might ask? they are grown in boxes as soon as they bear fruit causing there distinct and easy to stack square body. Although cube melons were originally created with practicality in mind, the cost now is prohibitive. The cube shape of the watermelon can only be achieved at the expense of its contents. To retain the proper shape, cube melons must be harvested before they are ripe, rendering them inedible​

    so the big question is how do you like your melons
