A melon with mesh used to be a super expensive and valuable fruit in Japan when I was a child. It was a special fruit, which was so expensive that we could have it only when we got sick seriously. Fortunately for these past years, owing to the invention of new kinds of melons, the price of meshed melons has been getting down. Today I got this small meshed melon, a cantaloupe exactly, whose price was only 79 cents each. It was so cheap that I suspected it was rotten, and of course it wasn't. I divided it into two and one of them I enjoyed after supper. It was a forty-cent, gorgeous desert. Any way, older people sometimes say that bananas used to be super expensive fruit which are now one of the cheapest fruits. I think younger generation would someday say, "I can't believe melons used to be a precious fruit."
