Okay this may not be relatable for a lot of people who do not separate their trash into 4 different bins. But we have a dedicated bin for organic waste, we use it for energy production etc. The supermarkets put these little stickers on their fruit and veggies, they are similarly infuriating as stickers on non organic stuff.
My rubbish company told me not to throw them into the compost bin; that it’s better to put your peel onto regular rubbish if you can’t get them off.
Yup these non removable stickers make the “complete packaging” regular rubbish by definition. Consider a supermarket/brand which uses removable labels.
I can’t recall running into paper labels on fruit before. Idk where OP lives or maybe I’ve just somehow dodged brands that do this up until now, wtf.
This is Germany
Wow, I expected this from the US, Canada, or the UK.
I thought having clear rules for an efficient society was Germany’s whole thing.
Very common in usa
Plastic coated paper even!
I see them far less often than I used to.
Ireland
I usually shop at Aldi, and their brand comes in plastic bags, with no stickers on the fruit. Still not ideal, but at least it’s easily separable.
