Because it is so tough, in this day and time, to peel yer own bananas. =)

Not just wasteful, but your fingers get sticky if you hold the edible part instead of the peel when eating it.

Obama would ask : Couldn’t they have just put peeling instructions in Austrian on the bananas?

There is a neat culinary trick where you can pre-slice a banana without taking the peel off. My kids always loved that.

I despise environmentalists, but I also hate this stupid crap like I hate bottled water.

I didn't read the article but there must be some value to banana peels and that's why the supplier is stealing them from the consumer. Oh, here's one!:

Banana peels clean polluted water

I would never buy those.
#1 I wash my fruit then peel.
#2 These were probably bruised and going bad. YUK! NEVER!

This is terrible. How are public school kids ever going to learn how to put a condom on a banana with these goofy things. Bring back real bananas so our children can learn.

Should be shrink wrapped in yellow cellophane and packaged in a cardboard box illustrated with a bunch of bananas.

It had to come to be .... too many progressives were performing sex acts with the skins still on .... those Chiquita stickers were getting stuck in a lot of unusual places.

It’s a SAFETY feature, that’s it !! (grin)

How many times have we seen a strategically-placed banana peel trip up hordes of people ???

This is surely a nanny-state initiative to protect us all from the overwhelming dangers of carelessly-dropped banana peels !!
