Number 6. Square Watermelons – $800
Would you spend $800 dollars on a watermelon? What about a square watermelon?
Imported from Japan, where they’re grown in tempered-glass cases that force them to take on their unique shape, with exactly the same interior as a regular watermelon.
But how do you think they make square shape, because that is obviously not the shape they naturally have.
To achieve the unique shape, farmers grow the fruit in plastic containers.
Not nearly as expensive as its other relative, the square watermelon in Japan still sells for $800, still a very high price for a fruit.
