De eerste lading vierkante meloenen werden gisteren in de Japanse havenstad Zentsuji klaargezet voor export. Japanse boeren kwamen op het idee meloenen te kweken die in een ruime koelkast passen. De Japanners zweren bij de efficiency-voordelen die de kubus-vrucht voor transport oplevert. De meloen, die groeit in een vierkant glazen kastje, kost ruim 200 gulden. Foto AP

i know how do they do it
they put the melons in squares for a long period , and the melon takes this form . I know that because when i was a kid i used to buy "Picsou Magasine" and they give u gifts in each issue . One of them was the "cubator" where u put an egg and it becomes squarred

Yeah, for one mellon. The worst part was that I actually saw someone buying it! She said it was for a decoration.
I read that they grow it in glass squares until they are ripe. People have alot of time. ha
