[@seanmcpherson2801]

They mentioned the watermelon can easily crack. I’m thinking they cut it off the vine as soon as it has become cube-shaped to minimize risk of cracking. Almost like you’re blowing up a balloon too large and it could pop. However, I am curious what would happen if they changed the size of the cage little by little to get a larger one. Would it be more ripe and less of an ornamental plant? Would it keep its shape or crack?

[@neiltsakatsa]

@@seanmcpherson2801 They also mentioned @ 0:41 that because of low rainfall the harvest wasn't that much. So I guess increasing the size would obviously be a gamble.

[@NiGeRiAnGeEk]

@@neiltsakatsa the harvest has more to do with the number of watermelons rather than size. The size they picked was so that it would fit perfectly in refrigerators. Any bigger, and they won't fit.

[@Jones1988]

Yes i thougt the same, i would rather buy a cheaper round and tasty Watermelon😅👍

[@woodsmark0]

If you cant eat it because its not ripe enough, Then why not build a bigger square box so it has more time to fill the space and get ripe. $100 bucks seems kinda steep for some damn square fruit. no matter how rare it is. It's one of those things you see like "cool" now what lol.

[@shinronvaynex5900]

just a made up theory but i think its because if the case is to big it might not fill because watermelons dont grow bigger that certaint size. and letting it rip may let melons be prone to crack.

[@woodsmark0]

Shinron Vaynex yeah, I had that in mind as well. seems to be correct, well to each his own and if that's what some are into then who am I to judge. thanks for shedding a bit of light on this theory any how. take care

[@Mech1000]

That was the first thing I thought of... make the box bigger you nimbwit... but hey, I dont think im artistic enough make that decision lol.

[@SanguineSlayer]

Because you can't justify a $100 food item, but you can justify it for an item for decoration.

[@shinronvaynex5900]

Jordan Smith well why do you think they made it a square then? i dont think a normal water melon would fit, even if it does it will roll. if it were square it will fit easyer and wont roll. cant use a norm to justify something abnormal. besides i dont know about you but i like my melons cold ad refreshing.

[@Nomoreidsleft]

The Japanese way, "How to turn an abundant and cheap source of food, into something expensive and inedible."

[@bchen972]

I take offense to this. Sushi was fast food in japan. Until AMERICANS (which I am) drove up the price of it. Also think about Japan. Do you see tons of space to grow produce? So land to grow is very expensive considering there is almost no free land. Japan is very tiny. Which is why the prices are very high.

[@Nomoreidsleft]

magebotjz2 That's my point exactly. They already don't have a lot of land, yet they waste it by growing watermelons that cannot be eaten for ornamental purposes. Oh yes, sushi is still considered fast food, that doesn't mean it's not expense. Btw, how much does a Mcdonald's Big Mac cost in Japan now? Last time I was there I seem to recall it was about 900 yen, which was about $9 at the time.

[@JAFrk]

Better than Debeers: How to turn a worthless rock that's only good for keeping saws sharp into the most iconic symbol of love in the world, then use that value to fuel war. The Japanese aren't the only ones trying to inflate the value of objects in food. All you've proved with your comment is that you are a racist by tying this act of wastefulness exclusively to Japan (which is dumb in itself because just because a few people in Japan thought it was a good idea, apparently it means all of Japan thought it was a good idea) Btw, beef is expensive in Japan, which is why big-macs are so expensive, and its more of a novelty food of "this is what American's eat". Which makes me questions why the hell you were in a Mc Donalds in Japan anyway.

[@seraphiccandy21]

Wait, they normaly cost 100 dollars and the round ones are 3-4 times cheaper...so a normal round watermelon is still 25dollars???!!

[@Ilikewater-andice]

Basically yes.

[@2011blueman]

DJSylus Tyler Hardwick You can't build a bigger box because the outside wall of a watermelon thins as it gets ripper and it won't hold the square shape (they split when you build the box bigger), so you can't have a ripe square watermelon.

[@SilentDeathByNINJA]

It could still be possible, I mean I'm guessing they could probably genetically engineered them to just be square

[@2011blueman]

Tyler Hardwick You can't genetically engineer them to be square. You could engineer them to have a thicker wall/rind, but then you'd be selling a GMO and outside the USA most countries frown on that.

[@SilentDeathByNINJA]

Really, I mean honestly you don't think that it would be a possibility for god sakes they can make it so an unborn child of a black couple comes out white with blonde hair and blue eyes when born and you don't think they can change the shape of a fruit........almost gurenteeing they could especially if they actually tried.....you know like cared but they don't so why would they

I don’t think most people in this comment section understand that fruits(along with a range of other items) in Japan don’t serve only the purpose of being fruits/food. They are often a sign of status and appreciation. A status sign because they charge *so much* more for the best looking fruits, like perfectly shaped vivid-red strawberries and the square watermelons. And not everyone has the money to spare on something like that instead of buying something that is useful(actual food, clothes, etc). An exemple on how it’s a sign of appreciation can be noticed if you look at the end of the video, there’s perfect looking melons with ribbons on the shelf, their purpose is to serve as gifts to show someone you appreciate them.

I love the idea. It is not a chemical alteration and it is a great way to make an efficient shape for transport and storage. It seems like they could improve the method so it's easy, produces a yummy fruit, and is so efficient to handle at all phases that it's cheaper for the consumer.

[@joshvinstraightup822]

Right

[@hukesama8389]

He did mention that the watermelon have to be able to fit into the refrigerator.

[@HappyHappyPanda88]

Does your regular round watermelon fit into your regular fridge? No. Its fit into the fridge after the first cut in half.

[@HappyHappyPanda88]

and why would you want to fridge something thats not edible anyways what?

[@shary497]

What if they just made the box bigger so it would have more time to mature ?

[@Thunder8277]

In the video, the guy said that they made square watermelons to help with shipping and keeping them, so the watermelons have to be a certain height or they won't fit in fridges.

[@shary497]

@thunder8827 but now they are just for decoration

[@bellpapavarin]

Its already ripe. Not ripe watermelon would look different. THis is another kind of watermelon; theres one with yellow flesh and red flesh. Both taste like watermelon and yellow flesh are really common here

[@peterdarnai132]

[@sarak5643]

It's called mango watermelon

[@K-L-2-6-9]

***** Whut?

[@engalstiger]

***** Would be Dorral, stupid round eye

[@VLake-rr5sb]

It's the culture. In Japan people pay a ton of money for fruits. The retailers will claim that they are best kind of that fruit you can buy etc. It's a delicacy and sometime used for status symbols sort of. There are big straw berries you can buy for about 5 to 8 dollars per strawberry. They aren't just any strawberry, but rather the biggest and reddest ones specially selected. They have melons that will sell for about 80 dollars and peaches that might go for about 20 dollars etc etc. These aren't everyday fruit, but rather specially selected/grown fruit that are claimed as being special either for the way they taste or look or their size and shape or patterns etc etc. As for comparing it to something in western culture, it's like buying the latest pair of designer clothes for hundreds of dollars rather buying a bunch of regular clothes for the same amount. People don't do it all the time. But sometimes people like to treat themselves to what they might consider nice. like going to a 50 dollar steak restaurant and such.

[@gsau3000]

Water LEMON?

[@goggletanline]

It's because Japan is a small island country with limited farm space and usually has to import their fruits

[@someguy2087]

That color inside surprises me more. Never seen before.

[@obs_vicc4145]

Gotta admit they do look cool and the reason behind the idea seems legit..I think there might be away to make this work and be edible..they are stunting the growth by putting them in cubes and basing the harvest time on the time it takes to fill that cube not the prime ripening point of an actual watermelon why not a shape that allows them to mature like a rectangle? You’ll still have the flat sides and corners and maybe it’ll have edible meat not just the hard rind

[@gj8vlog453]

STATIK_LOW 9737971516

[@eyesofthecervino3366]

Exactly what I was thinking. Or better yet, why not grow smaller watermelon varieties, so they can ripen in the mold? I've been growing Sugar Baby watermelons for some years now, and I'm not convinced a fully mature melon would even fill out that size of cube.

Interesting. I never knew they were so hard to come by and so expensive. I saw some of these for sale in a grocery store during my first trip to Japan. I also didn't know they were not edible. There goes my seven year dream of buying one and eating it. XD I've wanted one ever since I saw it at that grocery store. Haha Oh well.

[@christopherstein2024]

I think Japanese have some stupid melon fetish. Melons for some reason are expensive and look good but taste bad. Like melons in general I think.

[@norwegianboyee]

@@christopherstein2024 All fruit in Japan is expensive for no fucking reason. Being packaged in a lot of plastic and individually wrapped in fancy garbage to bring up the price to ten times the normal and accepted price levels for fruit anywhere else in the world. The only two fruits that are sold somewhat cheap is bananas and pineapple for some reason.
