Just note: In my experience they usually turn completely black immediately. It's fine, they still taste however they did when you put them in

Ah, you have to put them in a drawer so that there isn't as much airflow.

*You might note they're still yellow under the sticker

I hadn't, but also I eat them with the sticker on. It's even made of food safe paper and glue!

I just peel them with the sticker on and didn't notice xD Does make sense, though!

chat is this real?

At least in America, yes. Granted, don't, because there is plastic in it, but the type of plastic is in the General Recognized As Safe (GRAS) category for consumption. Not actually sure if the ones on bananas are, since most people don't eat the peel, but apples, peaches, etc? Yeah, it legally has to be safe to eat.

I'm in the EU, and always throw that shit into mixed garbage, unsure if it's compostable or recyclable plastic.

Yeah, y'all have different food laws. I'm assuming the glue is food-safe, since it's expected to have some residue left on the thing when you eat it, but idk about the stickers themselves, and can't find anything about either, so... I'm not a lawyer or a nutritionist, idk what I'm talking about :D

[–] snoons@lemmy.ca 3 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Yeah, I don't peel them so I have to take off the sticker.

[–] dehyzer@piefed.social 10 points 4 days ago (2 children)

Hold up, you're eating unpeeled bananas? Just chomping through the skin and chewing everything up?

Is that actually a thing?

[–] varjen@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Only weirdos peel their bananas.

[–] snoons@lemmy.ca 2 points 3 days ago

It's a waste of electrolytes.

[–] bizarroland@lemmy.world 1 points 3 days ago

No, and anyone that tells you different is AI
