luxury fruit!!!!
There was the fisart auction in this year for 夕張メロン [Yubari Melon] yesterday.
Yubari Melon is kind of (cantaloupe) Melon cultivar. ([Yubari] is place name of Hokkaido)

The hammer price was 800,000yen/two melons!! (about 7,228 dollar)
It was all-time high price.
I was sooo surprised!!!!

Yeah,melon is luxury fruit but I can't believe that price!!!
Even,beginning in a season and high rank cultivar.

I really wonder who 's eat it???
