WORLD'S MOST EXPENSIVE
WATERMELON
THE LONGEST LIST OF THE LONGEST
STUFF AT THE LONGEST DOMAIN NAME AT LONG LAST
What is the most expensive waterme
lon in the world?
You can expect to pay a hefty
price when shopping for watermelons in the local grocery store at a time when
the fruit is not in season. However, there’s an area of Japan that takes the
meaning of pricey produce to a whole new level.
The area of the Japan is the northern island of
Hokkaido and it is here that one of the rarest types of watermelons in the
world, the Densuke watermelon, is grown. These watermelons are thought to be far
superior to the American watermelons because they are sweeter and firmer. The
Japanese actually purchase these watermelons as gifts because they are so rare
and sometimes produce only sixty fruit during a harvest. The largest watermelon
of one such harvest weighed 24 pounds and was sold for $5,945. However, this was
still not the most expensive. The most expensive watermelon was lighter at 17
pounds but was a much healthier and heartier fruit. This melon sold at auction
for $6,100.
