>The EU ban on 'bendy bananas' and crooked cucumbers was often cited as an example of 'legislative heavy-handedness' as the Remain and Brexit camps drew their battle lines.
>A 1994 EU regulation specified bananas must be 'free from abnormal curvature.'
>EU rules also governed the shape of many other fruits and vegetables — cucumbers, for example, needed to be almost perfectly straight.
Isn't that too much?

How dare they say our bananas can't be bendy?! Why, it's bendy bananas made this country what it is!!
But the bendy one's are best for hitting the right spots. Are the EU homophobes?

A Finn recently proposed forcing every European national football team to wear the flag of Europe on their shirts, so much for your countries innocence in this clusterfuck. And the banana thing is a well known myth.

Do you really want a government that controls how bendy a banana can be?

No, because the law this myth was created from was repealed in 2011.

No, the regulation is meant to standardize the classifications of banans for whole salers. Bananas of any shape are allowed to be sold.

Doesn't that encourage genetically modified food, something which the EU also isn't crazy about?
so stop doing this
