Polluting organic bananas

    Whose idea is to put stickers in all fruit and vegetable pieces these days? Is this a law or something? As a consumer paying for the thing I say: please stop this non-sense.

      I end up eating one of those stickers by accident about once a week. Silly me, after I've removed two from the same pear, I expect that I've found all of them, but sometimes there's a third lurking on the other side.

      Funny. I've never seen this problem with the cheaper non-organic stuff I usually buy here. Maybe the large profit margins are to blame? :P

      I have seen them also in non-organic fruit. I'll pay a more systematic attention from now own since this is really annoying and pointless. These stickers were made of paper, but regular Gala apples come with little PLASTIC stickers, one for each.
