It seems that the square watermelons I posted about before, are not the only shapes you can get watermelons in. The above watermelon sells for about $650. How it is made is considered a trade secret. It seems that you can get cucumbers in different shapes as well. Below is a picture of star and heart shaped cucumbers that you can buy to decorate your salad.
If you live in Japan, you can now buy square watermelons instead of the traditional rounded oval shaped melons. These melons are grown in a square shaped glass jar. Pretty cool looking, but I don’t think I would like the price. They are going to set you back a little over a hundred dollars. So they aren’t cheap.
