Talking Pyramid & Square Shaped Watermelons

Apparently the traditional oval watermelon was too difficult to stack, so the square watermelon was developed a few years back. Now in a complete twist, there is a whole new problem, the pyramid shaped watermelon! Good luck stacking these things!

Unfortunately, I have no idea where you can buy these stateside, but if you're in Japan you might get to see them!

Re: Pyramid & Square Shaped Watermelons

Re: Pyramid & Square Shaped Watermelons

god, it's gotta be expensive to grow those like that in bulk. to make shaped watermelons, you just have to put it in a container with the shape that you want and let it grow in there.

I've never seen the pyramid ones.

So cool, although they are super expensive over there!

Re: Pyramid & Square Shaped Watermelons

Haven't seen the pyramid ones before, but have seen the square shaped ones on news on tv and real life at a supermarket. They are really expensive though, going for USD50. Also, I think they are not edible.
