It's Hip to Be Square

Being that we're Square Root Interactive, I couldn't resist posting this photo of square watermelons.

The e-mail forward I received that included this picture noted:
A round watermelon can take up a lot of room in a refrigerator and the usually round fruit often sits awkwardly on refrigerator shelves. Smart Japanese Farmers have forced their watermelons to grow into a square shape by inserting the melons into square, tempered glass cases while the fruit is still growing on the vine.
