This have been a success as not only they are more atractive to the costumers but they also "last longer" as they do not show signs of aging or cuts/bruises and they are not thrown away. For this reason, Arctic markets them as better for the environment. They also have a fresher taste to them. ]]> 2023-09-12 19:18:51 UTC https://padlet.com/a017088021/12e9jv01sm23fek4/wish/2700542674
