I love your $2 monstrous pizza slices, knock off Lululemon yoga pants, bags of baby kale, and free samples. I love that I can put any and all purchases on the Costco Amex card and my husband has no idea what I bought.\n\nBUT.\n\nIt is time for some tough love. What the heck are you doing to the bananas??? I mean, I know the sign says, \"Control Ripening Technology\" but this so-called \"technology\" is making your bags of bananas turn into bags of banana mush.\n\nBasically, I buy the bananas. I leave them in the bag. The bag assures me that moisture in the bag is good for my bananas. But, THE BAG IS WRONG. My bananas get soggy. The peel falls off. The banana turns brown. \n\nIf I try to eat the bananas immediately, when I break one off, it breaks away the peel from the other bananas because the moisture has made the skin weak and useless. So now I have a bunch of partly unpeeled bananas. It is madness. \n\nI will cut you slack because they are insanely cheap and you give me free samples of tuna fish on fancy crackers, but Costco, it is time to reject that stupid technology and put the holes back in the bag. Or, just stop selling bananas because as of right now you are reeking havoc on our local garbage men who are forced to deal with garbage cans full of bananas mush. I know, in the realm of trash, banana mush is seemingly innocent, but that stuff LEAKS. Then you step in it and your shoe becomes squeaky. The mush leaks onto other bags and then you have banana mush laden trash that attracts fruit flies. Nothing annoys me more than fruit flies. (And, apparently I speak for all trash men.) FIX THE BANANAS.\n\nThanks!"^^ . "8"^^ . "5"^^ . . .
