When are you going to start laser marking the apples and eliminate all
the little stickers?


Laser marking hell -- when are they going to start genetically
engineering fruits so the bar codes just show up on the skins?


Both great ideas. I'd just settle for some way to keep from getting
little tiny apple stickers all over everything. And find a use for the
miles of siliconed ribbon that the lables came on.
