Mr. Intelligence
In Japan, watermelons cost about 10,000 yens (more than 80 U.S dollars) primarily because they're square shaped. A round watermelon can take up a lot of room in a refrigerater and the usually round fruit often sits awkwardly on refrigerator shelves. Smart Japanese Farmers have forced their watermelons to grow into a square shape by inserting the melons into square, tempered glass cases while the fruit is still growing on the vine.
