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™‚

The stickers are compostable and edible already

Editing to say I'm a liar I guess, since I couldn't find proof to back this claim and have just been eating plastic sometimes.

Where do you have that? I haven't seen that in most places

Omg I guess I've been tricked. I had read that they were mostly in at least the US but now can't find any evidence to support that. Gotta do my homework better I guess.

There's one company that is making them that has customers all over north america but I guess it's not as common as I thought. https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/windsor/plastic-sticker-produce-ban-alternative-1.6844972
