We have no bananas

Decisions, decisions...

It seems Sainsbury's only sells Fairtrade bananas now; it's no longer left to the customer to choose.

That leaves three options.

• I could buy slightly elderly bananas at a premium price from my local corner shop. I'd rather not, as I feel such shops occupy an obsolete market sector which I'd be happy to see slip out of business.
• Or I could condone counter-productive tokenism. I don't think so.
