The 4011 on produce stickers
Not so long ago, my sisters and I used to take the Chiquita banana stickers off the peel and stick them to the underside of the kitchen cupboard, which over time became a sweet little mosaic.
Unfortunately though, along with polar bears and newspapers, produce stickers are dying out. A recently developed technology now allows produce companies to apply a low-energy carbon dioxide laser beam alternative. Less paper and garbage is always good, but it also means a little less colour in our world.
So relish them while you can, because soon they will be no longer, which is bad news for Colorado artist Barry Snyder.
