Someone told me that Bananas cure both constipation AND diarrhea.

Let’s see a gum do better than that!

Its a great bit of publicity for the Banana board. Good job guys… kick up a fuss. Who cares if it is justified? We’re talking about it, arent we…

Of course things get on to shakier ground when you consider the chocolate covered frozen bananas at the Big Banana in Coffs Harbour – is the essential Pacific Highway rest stop still there?

Well its fair call because amyl acetate (smells like banana) is nothing even close to fruit….

Just like drink companies have to disclose if they use concentrate and in their drinks and have to be called “fruit drink” and not “fruit juice”, Wrigley should have to answer to trusted bodies such as Horticulture Australia.

It is not another competitor who is annoyed its a just a marketing stunt, its a fair response and a failure by Wrigley to take the matter seriously.
