Protect Your Fruit

Nobody likes bruised fruit, which is part of the reason why I am proposing my fruit air pockets for industrial use in transporting fruit, and in my research I have found several other creative ways to protect your fruit.

These knitted fruit cozies are cute but I don't know how practical they are in actually protecting fruit.

Then there is this Hermes apple holder. They have created this lambskin apple purse specifically to protect your apple in a stylish way. If its between this or a bruised apple I think I'll go with the bruised because this holder goes fro $395, a little more than an apple is worth to me.







Then there are these banana hammocks. The ones on the right seem a bit impractical because not all bananas are shaped the same. While the one on the left seems like a practical idea in its simple design to fit all shapes and sizes...of bananas.



There are also these foam fruit nets that Harry and David often use in shipping their product all over the world. They allow fruit to be packaged next to each other in a box without casueing fruit on fruit bruising.




And then there are these blister packed blueberries. I love this design because blueberries are so easily squished and giving each berry it's own protective bubble seems like a great idea. However, I wonder how easy it is to actually get each berry out without squishing it because you'd have to push from one side to get anything out of a blister pack.





I hope that my fruity air pocket would eliminate the need for all of these products becuase not only would it protect the fruit in transportation form the growers to the consumer but would continue to protect the fruit up until the moment it is eaten.
