Starbucks 'Trenta': How The New Size Compares To Your Stomach
Famous Death Row Last Meals
We have seen pyramidal watermelons before, and we have known that square watermelons have been on the Japanese market for some time. I have never seen one in my local market, but I would definitely not mind getting my hands on one just for the novelty factor. Fortunately, I caught a post that showed how to do it when I was browsing at Boing Boing. It looks like you just put the immature watermelon into a box with a removable side. As it matures, it grows into the shape of the box - just like a bonsai kitten, but much less disturbing.

5-29-2006 @3:05PM Mark said... Why would you even choose to compare it to a bonsai kitten? That was unnecessary and inappropriate for this type of article. The picture would have sufficed.
