Watermelon^2

This isn't exactly new news, but the ingenious Japanese have done it again. This time Japanese farmers have done away with the inefficiently oblong melon of yesteryear, producing a square watermelon that will fit conveniently into your refrigerator. The agricultural feat did not even require the genetic engineering that one would expect of such a marvel, only a cube box to limit the melon's growth. The only drawback to the melon^2 is its price, which at 10,000 yen is roughly $87.

Note: For 10,000 Yen, you can buy one one square watermelon or feed 100 hungry Japanese children at the Shin-Yokohama Ramen Museum.

Note: Much searching has failed to yield square pumpkins for this Halloween season. Although, that doesn't mean people out there aren't trying. Better luck next year.
