In 1978 Ono Tomoyuki (小野友之), a graphic designer, created the 'cube watermelon' (四角スイカ).
Designed to be easier to cut up and better fit in fridges, the cost of producing each fruit (grown to fill a box) makes them 3 or 4 times more expensive than normal watermelons🧊🤔

🪶SOUND OF FEATHERS WATERFALL💦 Kiyomizu-dera's 'Otowa-no-taki' (音羽の滝) is channeled into three streams so that worshippers can reach out with ladles to catch and drink the sacred water. The waterfall is the source of the temple's name. Kiyomizu '清水'🤔 = 'pure waters'😌
