If … if only there were some form of container for a banana . Something that would protect the yield at heart , be loose to spread out , and a walkover to throw aside . Oh wait , right .
as luck would have it , the idiots atDel Montehave created an entirely unneeded and whole wasteful solution to a problem that does n’t exist — packaging the perfectly ok organic wrap of the banana tree ’s skin with a plastic one — which now hit it , in moron selling - speak , a “ Natural Energy Snack on the Go ” ! This is a huge stand-in , because portability was a major job with bananas throughout chronicle , what with no soft manner to hold or store them .
Del Monte , in one last gesture of stupidity , in reality claims the bags are eco - friendly , because they ’ll perfectly time the ripening of the fruit on shelves , preventing unnecessary banana tree manner of speaking . And the cost to society is only a moldable bag fabricate for every single banana .
It would also be nice to have apple packed in long-lasting styrofoam shells with a carrying shoulder strap . Someone please get on this . [ Daily MailviaTreeHugger ]
Update : Del Monte appear to have taken some subject with the above reading of their eco - initiative , and would wish to pop the question the following clarification :
Hi Sam ,
Regarding your office today about Del Monte ’s plastic - bagged bananas , I ’d wish to bespeak that you clarify that the Fresh Del Monte company distribute and market fresh banana , as well as other sweet fruit , fresh veg and fresh produce under the Del Monte brand throughout the world . Its affiliate , Del Monte International , markets packaged intellectual nourishment under the Del Monte brand in Europe , the Middle East , Africa and the Indian pigboat - continent .
A separate and unaffiliated fellowship , Del Monte Foods , grocery packaged ( not sweet ) nutrient merchandise under the Del Monte sword in the US and South America .
If there ’s any path you’re able to clear up this today , I ’d appreciate it .
So , consider yourself clear up .
