How expensive is the "watermelon assassin" in Japan?

Hello everyone, I am a small last.

Two days ago, the price of watermelon in the supermarket downstairs was reduced.

Half of the watermelon thief is one big, very fresh, only eleven or two out, didn't hesitate, I first rushed.

When I ate watermelon, I brushed Weibo with my hand, hey, guess what I saw:

Japan's square watermelon is listed, and a watermelon is priced at 750 yuan.

Points: not sweet.

Dare to love this watermelon "I can't see it."

Sweet watermelon sells this sky -high price. Are you really afraid of Liu Huaqiang who bought melon?

Say laughter.

However, this square watermelon is good -looking. It is really better than ordinary circular watermelon.

Most square watermelons are picked up and put them into the mold before they are immature.

In this way, the shape of the watermelon is beautiful, but the sweetness does not keep up with.

Of course, there will be exceptions, and the watermelon picking time with a larger size is relatively late.

For a long time, the sweetness will be higher, but the price is naturally higher.

In Japan, watermelon expensive is not a strange thing.

Japanese watermelon has not many output.

In the 2018 statistics of the United Nations Food Organization, about 100 million tons of watermelon was produced worldwide.

Among them, 60.68 million tons (60%) are produced by China, and Japan's output is only 320,000 tons, which is 0.5%of our output.

Therefore, watermelon in Japan's fruit market is like nobles, and ordinary varieties of watermelon also cost 2,000 yen (about 150 yuan).

If the price of watermelon can be less than 300 yen (about 20 yuan), it will even be regarded as a selling point on TV.

This is the case for ordinary watermelons, let alone a new and innovative square watermelon.

In addition to square watermelons, other unique shapes of watermelon are not cheap.

For example, heart -shaped watermelon, a single price costs 30,000 yen (about 1476 yuan).

So the question is, since the square watermelon is not delicious, how can it be so expensive?

In this regard, the person in charge of a fruit store in Shibuya, Japan gave the answer, and the sky -high watermelon was not used to eat it. It was decorated and viewed.

"(Watermelon) can be preserved at least one month at room temperature."

Do you tell me to spend so much money to buy a watermelon?

Well, pretty good (just blame)

However, although Japanese watermelon is expensive, there is a long -circulating "Watermelon" ス イ カ り "festival.

Watermelon is usually performed by the beach or open.

People who do watermelon will blindly look at the eyes and rely on the reminder of the people around you to get close to watermelon.

The reminder lines are nothing more than "a little bit on the left", "one point on the right".

When you look for the position, a stick goes down, and the watermelon is beaten in four cracked, even if it is successful.

The watermelon festival comes from the swordsmanship exercises in the martial arts, and use watermelon instead of opponents to train.

Unconsciously, this "watermelon" training method has gradually been promoted and evolved into a gaming game.

In some well -known film and television animations in Japan, there have been plots of watermelon.

For example, "Doraemon" we are familiar with.

Summer is about to pass. With the help of Doraemon, Nobita and Shizuki both experience the joy of "making watermelon" on the beach.

In "The Dragon Maid of the Kobayashi Family", Meng Da also tried "Watermelon". This explosive power is strong!

I felt my face across the screen (dog head)

So, the question is, watermelon is so expensive. They also use watermelon to play games without waste?

The answer is that the mountain people have their own tricks.

Before playing the watermelon game, they will put a piece of cloth under the watermelon, and the watermelon will continue to eat.

Generally, the winner eats first, and the other friends will continue to eat.

But when good friends play together, there are not so many rules, so happy will be done ~

If it is said that in Japan, watermelon is a nobleman, how can other fruits be a "gatekeeper family".

On a search engine, if you enter the keywords of "Japan" and "Fruit", the content of the pop -up is basically "expensive".

To be honest, Japanese fruits are expensive.

First of all, Japan is surrounded by the sea, the land area is small, the available arable land area is very limited, and the total output of fruits is relatively low.

As the saying goes, things are rare, and the price will be higher.

Secondly, the quality control of Japanese fruits is very strict.

The quality of the basic products of the expensive fruits seen in department stores or supermarkets is close to perfection, and it will be more thoughtful in packaging.

For example, the square watermelon of "watching" is not forgotten to tie the knot.

Then you can sell it out:

Finally, to protect the interests of farmers.

In Japan, the population of agricultural families accounts for about 7%of the total population. Because there are not many people, the policies promulgated by the government are very "friendly" for farmers.

The area of ​​land that can be cultivated in Japan is not large, and the yield of Japanese fruit trees in Japan has no unique advantages. In order to increase the income of farmers, the price is naturally rising.

In the "THE! Iron Wing! DASH !!" program in Tokio, the "0 円 在" session has shown rural Japan.

Each household house is very angry (it can be seen that it is rich) and even the agricultural product direct sales center is decorated like an exhibition hall. It can be seen that in Japan, how high the value of farmers and agricultural products is ...

I wrote here, and I suddenly felt that half a piece of watermelon in my hand was very fragrant.

Do you have anything to say about Japan's sky -high square watermelon and fruits?

Welcome to discuss the comment area together ~
