You can’t even eat these watermelons cuz they’re kept unripened

They don’t even taste that good. AFAIK Squatermelons’ price just comes as a kind of status thing. They’re basically fleeting art, an organic ice sculpture, a very expensive and juicy bouquet of flowers. Purely decorative, but very impractical as food. To be fair, they aren’t meant to be eaten.

Andy they’re literally no different and probably taste worse. They’re just jammed into plastic molds to grow like that. I believe in Japan it’s a gift for display

These actually don’t taste good and they are actually that expensive. They’re supposed to be decorative pieces.
Okay, let me get this straight. I’m supposed to pay $200 for a $5 melon that isn’t meant to be eaten and doesn’t taste good, for the status of it all. Have I got it right?

Shit like this only exists because people are stupid enough to keep paying for it I hope these are the most flavorless watermelons to ever exist

If im not mistaken its an import from Japan though yeah the store owner definately taking advantage of it as they are at most 56 bucks imported. Though tariffs might play into a higher price.

So they optimized space capacity for themselves and some how we have to pay more. Didn’t see that coming.

It’s not food it’s decorative. Kinda like pumpkins during the Halloween season.

Just another way to part rich fools and their money.

Yeah, they grow those in a glass cube and do that size so as to fit in the small refrigerators it’s a Japan thing.

Well some dude had to put a $2 form around it so that justifies the 6,000% markup.

They imported an already expensive item from Japan without knowing what it is… It’s supposed to be a gift for important people in your life (parents, friends, bosses). They are picked while unripe so they’re considered inedible.

Yeah but square. On top of being really expensive they actually save some money shipping it since it stacks and packs nicely
