It’s for cut fruit - whole fruit is fine!
What is with all this bullshit preprocessed crap like lead-flavored apple sauce squeeze pouches and now this, fucking eat a damn apple or get normal apple sauce and use tupperware to save the pollution and contamination. Jesus Christ, how lazy and dumb are we?
Also, doesn't pre-cutting fruit cause it to start fruit-equivalent-of-oxidizing/rusting? What the heck is that called where you cut open the fruit and it slowly starts turning brown?
Edit: enzymic browning
The pouches are good for kids lunches. They're disposable, so no cleaning required (yes, I agree that's bad, but we're lazy), and they theoretically have some nutritional value. I'm not saying this is good, I'm saying why people use them.
Similarly, they're snack size. So when your kid says they're hungry at home, it's easy to tell the kid "get a pouch" instead of pouring some amount from a jar. Again, I'm not saying this is good, but it's why they're popular.
Just give them an equivalent volume measuring cup to pour into and use as the container which they quickly run water thru when done and put it back in "its home" :)
The recall includes whole melons.
I do eat real/whole fruit, just wanted to get things moving (pun intended)
