"In all classes, subject to the special provisions for each class and the tolerances allowed, the bananas must be:
— green and unripened,
— intact,
— firm,
— sound; produce affected by rotting or deterioration such as to make it unfit for consumption is excluded,
— clean, practically free from visible foreign matter,
— practically free from pests,
— practically free from damage caused by pests,
— with the stalk intact,
without bending, fungal damage or dessication,
— with pistils removed,
—
free from malformation or abnormal curvature of the fingers
— practically free from bruises,
— practically free from damage due to low temperatures,
— free from abnormal external moisture,
— free from any foreign smell and/or taste.
and so on
If you were thinking of selling bananas, one read of this ridiculously epically long document would be enough to put you off.
