Fresh Del Monte has suggested that 7-Eleven stores sell fresh bananas wrapped in plastic.
Selling more bananas and other fresh foods is helping us build profits lost when cigarette sales
declined. Although the wrapper may slow ripening and extend the shelf life of bananas, the
wrapping may turn customers off. They may see it as an environmental issue, and many may not
appreciate wrapping in plastic something that comes naturally wrapped in the first place.
