I'm sharing this because any reduction in unnecessary packaging waste is good for the planet - and because I think laser-etching avocados is funny. ๐Ÿ™‚

That's weird to see avocados in packaging. In my area they just stack them on a produce shelf like onions, no packaging or lasers required

Do they have small stickers on them?

Fuck, I forgot about that. Good point!

But why!?

Put them in a container and label the container TESCO WHATEVER FRUIT, no lasers required.

Laser etching doesn't sound like a terrible idea.
