At the big market, these French Carribbean banana boxes have been recycled by stallholders and now serve to carry kitchen utensils to and from the stalls.

Eh oui, la banane des Antilles est devenue ustensile de cuisine, son carton se recycle pour certains vendeurs...
Much more colorful than the brown banana boxes I'm used to seeing. Immediately post-college, I found the banana box to be particularly beneficial for packing and carrying.
ReplyDeleteThat would drive me bananas! How do you know which utensils are in which box? ;-)
ReplyDeleteActually, it is a great idea. One thing we like about Stone Creek is that we have a good recycling program!
At least they are being recycled. Nice photo.
ReplyDeleteGood for them. Someone is trying to reduce the amount of trash.
ReplyDeleteGood to know recycling is alive and well over there too! Even banana boxes look better in Europe..
ReplyDeleteI go ape for bananas...

Considering the low cost paid to banana growers, these boxes cost a pretty penny to print in color!
ReplyDeleteWe have the very same banana boxes here. they are great for reusing. MB
ReplyDeleteI just spent a week at a tennis tournament where everyone from players to umpires want a banana! Ours were chiquita bananas...but I like your boxes better :D
ReplyDelete"Rien ne peut la battre"?.. morte de rire!:))
ReplyDeleteOne of my favorite fruits. When I worked inside the port I used to smuggle a case of bananas like these, once and then...
ReplyDeleteBananas are my favorite, but they can't be too ripe. Very colorful boxes!
ReplyDeleteBanana boxes are strong. I like the bright colors.
