This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

They'd ripen faster in open air too. This whole packaging fruit trend is just stupid.
Unless it's for accessibility. There are some niche prepackaged fruits specifically for people with arthritis and other mobility issues that actually can't reasonably peel fruit, but these aren't even peeled so obviously it's not for that.
I'm not sure if that's true as afaik bananas release some sort of heavier than air gas that causes both themselves and lots of other produce to ripen faster. The more airflow the less banana gas.
Stop your nonsense daydreaming and get back to work!
