Sticker to protect the fruit from rotting
Food waste is a huge problem all around the world, and some estimates suggest that 52 percent of crops arot before it reaches consumers at all.
A malaysian company, however, seems to have found a solution to the problem.
Stixfresh has developed a special sticker that glues on fruit by slowing down the maturation process by natural ingredients, leaving fruit fresh for up to weeks. Moreover, the company says the stickers can be consumed as well. (origo)
