square_melon.jpg You thought u had seen and heard it all ?? Hear now..

Farmers in Japan grow square watermelons. One of the reasons for doing so is that they are easier to store in space starved Japan.

And no I havent turned delusional because of my watermelon cravings.

CNN says so.

Did i mention that this watermelon costs about 90 US$. Thats about 4200 Rs (@ ~ 47 Re. to the $)

Watermelon is one of the fruits grown on our farm. How much do they sell for dad?? lets grow square ones and export to Japan !!

And here is a pic.
