..... The most I've seen is avocados bagged/packed as a group.

I normally see them individually.

Laser etching looks/sounds cool (especially if you do it on the damaged looking spots for less blemishes/more likely for consumers to buy); maybe save on a little sticker. You do you, just I don't know how much packaging this really saves on, unless you are like... laser etching barcodes and branding.

Laser etching doesn't sound like a terrible idea.

But why!?

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

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?

Cort ,

Fuck, I forgot about that. Good point!

Why TF would you package an avocado?????

Veggies need no packaging or laser etching for that matter

This is cultural waste

You're preaching to the choir, but it's better than the plastic they've been using
